Yes, take her to court. Go to small claims and file for wages unpaid. Contact the Jacksonville Code Enforcement at 117 W. Duval Street, Ste 280, 630-4955, and request that they contact your landlord and explain that their action is illegal and violated the Jacksonville Housing Code. Contact your utility company to see if they will turn the utility back on in your name. You may be required to pay a deposit and service charge.
