Subject to reading the lease, you will have to bring an eviction action for non-payment of rent.

Re: Termining a lease contract

You may be able to terminate the lease and file and eviction action to gain possession to the property, subject to the terms and conditions of the lease. I would need to review the lease agreement to provide you with your alternatives. If you wish to schedule a consultation, please call my office at 305-445-0937. No need to apologize for your English --- your question was perfectly understood. Thank you.
