Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Illinois
Can we sue past tenants for a water bill even though the bill is in the owners name (because the city of ottawa Illinois said it had too) and the lease states all utilities are to be paid by the tenants.

Yes based on your information as long as you have not otherwise settled with the tenant and no statute of limitations had passed.

Yes, but it is probably not worth the time or the effort unless the amount is very large.
