My ex-gf sublet'd her apt at college to a couple who didn't pay rent and the company she signed a lease with said it was her responsibility to evict them, which takes like 3 weeks, and she still had to pay the rent. Even winning a court case couldn't like garnish their wages... it'd just be the court saying they owe her 2 months rent. Like an outstanding debt they could never pay.
I lived next door to these scumbags and I too wanted to oust them by non-legal means... or at least take one of their little kids out for ice cream while they weren't watching (Not to hurt the kid, just scare the parents that anything can happen when you're a douchebag). The gf talked me out of it because anything I did would have given the couple legal stance to sue her. This family is going the right way about this. Keep it legal. Shutting off power or even the AC (by California law iirc) would be considered a property manager not maintaining a residence of another person. Vexatious List or not, she'd have grounds to sue them. What an asshat nanny.
