Does the mall have the right to cut off water and electricity without paying property fees?

Legal analysis: Without paying the property management fee, shopping malls have no right to cut off water and electricity for merchants.

The owner and the property management company are equal civil subjects, and both parties shall perform their respective obligations in accordance with the contract. If either party breaches the contract, it shall bear corresponding liabilities for breach of contract.

If the owner fails to pay the property fee in time, he shall bear legal responsibility. Property companies have the right to require owners to pay property fees and bear certain liquidated damages. But the property company has no right to take measures to cut off water and electricity.

Legal basis: Article 45 of the Regulations on Property Management. Within the property management area, water supply, power supply and other units shall charge relevant fees to the end users.
