You have to follow the procedure outlined in Florida Statutes to properly evict them. First, you have to serve them with a sufficient written notice, using the language outlined in the Statutes. Then, you can file the eviction action. Please see the free brochure on FL landlord-tenant law located at http://www.800helpfla.com/landlord_text.html. See also the Clerk of Court website for your county for forms and instructions on how to file the eviction.
