If tenant is not paying rent, you need to serve Three Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit. If they neither pay the rent nor move out within the 3-day period, you bring unlawful detainer action to evict them. You should consult your own attorney to protect your legal rights.
Subject to whatever written contract you may have, you can seek eviction if they don't pay rent. Consult with a local eviction attorney or eviction help service. for full information.
