Lock out & turn off of utiluty

[Kim Reames]

Going on 2 1/2 years and land Lord comes up and says he wants us out by the end of the next day. No let me back up a bit my husband met this man will thur a friend and now his boss then and now again. And we was looking for a place to rent and will Roberts had a place so he offered it to us . well at first it was a $100 a month and he would let us know what the bill were and he would leave them in his name and we just give him the money and he wpuld pay them. Long story short mybhusband and I both ended up going to work for will and then that went from us paying rent and our utility to us paying nothing and he paid my husband $10 a hour and paid me $5 a trailer to wash out.. Qe thought hell thats pretty good and we both liked it cause we were both right here at home so we thought...  Any way it went reworking a little arpund here mowing and what not and gettin this place back up and going. To going alright going to his place and going every thing there. Planting gardens moveing his daughter cutting down trees that storms took out months on end and hauling off on our money and our vehaul.  To my husband working on peoples cars and trucks that were friends of his and not getting paid for it to not getting paid at all for any thing any more. Then they took me out away from working with tbe trailer washes and helping with unloading the trailer to makeing me stay in my home. So with no no at comeing in mybhusband got his job back with our friend and his old boss Ronnie. And so he started back with him and it made will made cause he wasnt here to do what will wanted done. But qhile all alongbwe have fixed up yhe place with our own money it was never taken off the rent or given back we had to had the septic tank cleaned out that was $250 the 1st trip out and then again this year already he came and cleaned out the lagoon and told us it not only had to be deeper but had to be moved. You can stand on back porch and fish in it if it was a pond with little fish in it but we have had to replace all the sewer lines from trailer house to tank and to lagoon and replace and fix other water lines out side hydrantsbit all this has happen and nothing ever has been said about us paying any thing again. And he still calls my husband to have him work. But cuts off our electic after ive called and made agreement to have it put over in my name on that Friday he was haveing it turned off

Natualy thats not going to happen one we are in a mess with all the world in a up set with this crap going on and so we arent looking for a home right now. And to hea Thornburgbi papers give to us by him or thur no court. So hes comeing by 3 or4 times aday.telli n g us what hes going to do and all. So I took it up on my self to call and have the electric put in my name cause I knew what he meant by shouting **** down around here..So we went all weekend thinking since the guy came Friday and talked with him and he knew what was going on and he knew cause this was his 3rd time to deal with norma and will roberts that he wasn't turning it off cause there wasn't no bang out here they were going to be working . they were just trying to force us out and make us leave and leave hafe of ourvstuff here cause he had already had the locks changed on the shop were all our tools were and our other things that we had stored in there.but in oklahoma I did know what I could do about any of this cause now ive came home to a generator running my house to keep lights going anf my freg amd things and ive got the shitvthatvthe hole world is scared of.so I'm corninten to this place for at least 3 weeks the earliest . and I'm not wantingvtobhere this noisy thing that long. But what can I do about getting my elec turned back on can he go to jail for thos matter. And his wife cause she is actually the one who called and had it turned off. still no papers served nothing of any type he wrote some thing out and notarized it then selfies and in oklahoma that's a no no.. And so he was told he had to football thur our fourth and heading want to do that...but we are going to go thur the court  to do what we have to about all this if we can do any thing at all that is..  Well there's more lots more but I feel ive taken up more then enough of your time thank you.
