In Florida, you go to the clerk of court for a three day notice and file and post that. If fees are not paid in three days, you go back and start eviction proceedings. Unfortunately, you have to pay to file each document and to get an officer to come out and make sure the tenant leaves the property. It gets a bit pricey and aggaravating, but it is the law. To get your money back, you have to hire a lawyer to take them to court. If you do that, state that you want the back rent money, damages, costs related to eviction proceedings, and lawyer fees. I don't know if the proceedings are the same in California, but they may be the same or similar. Good luck!

To keep it perfectly legal, you'd have to file for eviction through the court system. There's something about giving them written notice beforehand in most states before you file. It gets very time-consuming and costly unfortunately. My parents used to have a bunch of rentals, so I have heard of other ways of getting people out though ;)

The only way to get them out is to file for an eviction in court.

first, call the cops, if that doesnt work then file a case against them..
if you hate this lessee so much, hire a hitman.. its easier..

have you asked for the rent?Persistently? Do they have kids? Have they broken the lease (is there a lease) in any OTHER way than non payment of rent?

Hire a lawyer and have him start a dispossession action.
