Re: proper forms to ask tenant to leave

You don't say whether there are other tenants, because the answer would be different.

Assuming there is only one lodger, you need either a 3 or 30 day notice (3 if he is behind with rent)., after the notice you just call or sheriffs to evict. See the following web page on California Law.http://sccounty01.co.santa-cruz.ca.us/DAinternet/evictions_from_an_owner_occupied.asp
