Student accomodation - one tenant threatening others
I need to lawyer up, unfortunately.
I have three tenants and one of the three has threatened another over an altercation of the internet bill. Basically he is refusing to pay and the one tenant said that he was going to cut the other off from the internet if he did not pay. This led to the tenant standing over the other, with arms on the back of the chair while shouting at him. The third tenant is female and is now feeling threatened and has emailed me about the fact. This is further exacerbated by my having issues with the father of this tenant.
As I am responsible for the safety of my tenants I am in need of getting this person out of the house. I have to go over the contract, hopefully I can find something there to help me either diffuse the situation and give me the upper hand as the contract states that they are entitled to "quiet enjoyment".
Any advice for a bumbling landlord?
thanks

You are not their mother. Your responsibility is providing a safe dwelling, not settling personal disputes.
