How to handle previous resident still using address years later?

So I'm having an issue where a previous resident of one of my rentals (they rented before I was the owner) is still using my properties address as their primary residence. There has been license address change cards sent to the house, gym membership paperwork and even his car title. It wouldn't be a big deal if it were just mail but my tenant tells me that this person has had police stop by with summons and people constantly coming by trying to serve court papers. Is there anything I can do about this??

    The mail can be stopped by going to the post office that dispatches the mail carrier and telling them the situation. The other stuff with court papers just happens. You can feed the new address to those pursuing this former occupant if you know the new address. It is annoying to say the least.
