Can you evict someone based on multiple complaints from another tenant?

You can TRY to "evict" them, going thru the court system, but you will have a VERY hard time of doing it. Judges simply won't force a person out unless there is a VERY good reason for it. Unless the police were involved several times, and someone was charged with something, you probably won't win an eviction. However, you can TERMINATE their lease by giving them proper notice according to your state's LL/T laws. But if you are only, say, 4 months into a 1 year lease, you will need to wait til towards the end of the lease to give them a notice. If they are M2M , give them notice now, to be out by Oct. 31.

I have found that very often in these forums people will use the term "eviction" to mean any process where the tenant has to move.
So, let's clear up what you mean. A legal eviction is where the landlord files in court to petition the court to order the marshal or sheriff to remove the tenant. This process requires the landlord to give proper legal notice to perform a specific action (and example is paying the rent) or face the court proceeding to get an order to evict.
Is this what you mean? If so, you must present that tenant with written notice to "cure the behavior or move out". The behavior must be specific and the cure must be specific. Also..it has to be a violation of the lease in some specific manner.
So..you might mean, just asking the tenant to leave. Look over on the right hand side of this screen...click the landlord tenant law item from the list. Look u p your specific state and read about what process you must use to notify the tenant that they must move. Follow that process carefully.
Not sure what you really meant, but that is the long and short of it in either case
