No Quick Fix

Practically speaking, illegal, unauthorized tenants are very difficult to remove from your rental property. Your best bet is to convince the legal tenant to get them out. Sorry I can't give you a quick fix for this residential property management problem.

Going to Court

Even if the tenant admits to the extra people, the judge might order that the unauthorized residents vacate the property. If the tenant agrees to do that, the case may well be dismissed. Should your authorized tenant fail to get the other folks out of the rental property, it's back to court again. The court may terminate the lease agreement and order the tenant out of the property. Generally, however, judges don't like to terminate leases.

Lease Violation

If you are getting no cooperation from your tenant about any other occupants, you can serve a notice to vacate for a lease violation. This action will take you into a courtroom, the last place anyone wants to be. You will have to convince the judge that there is, in fact, a lease violation occurring.
