<p dir="ltr">I believe unlawful detainee only applies to nonresidential tenancy. See Fla. Stat. 82.02. And eviction would be inappropriate too because there's no landlord-tenant relationship. Therefore, the proper cause of action is ejectment under chapter 66. This must be filed in circuit court unfortunately. </p>

After taking possession, he allowed his girlfriend to move in who does not pay rent and did not sign the lease. The relationship soured and now girlfriend refuses to leave. I am of the opinion that although the tenant is still in possession and entry by the girlfriend was lawful, her permission to remain in possession has been withdrawn and the tenant’s remedy is unlawful detainer. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
