Reply: You will need to serve them with notice of termination of their lease. The amount of time depends upon the term of the lease. As your fats seem to raise many issues, I suggest that you hire an attorney in your area to serve the notice and then complete the eviction process on your behalf. He can also discuss the liability you may have for the inproper eviction that you did by changing the locks.
