    I have an old grouped object that when you select, is much larger than the actual object. It presumably is referring back to a previous group.

    I have attached it in a separate file. How do I cut the connection?

    One or more of your filters extends far beyond the bounding box of the associated shapes. Select all then [Filters > Remove Filters]. Of course, this changes your illustration so I admit this isn't really a solution.
