Answer:
If the tenant refuses to leave, you may have to file suit for ejectment.
A suit for ejectment involves taking steps to have a court remove someone
from the real property who does not have a contractual basis to be there.
An example is a landlord seeking to remove a holdover tenant beyond the
lease term.
