started EVICTION, but tenant is moving items out, how to confirm?

[Joe Kato]

We have a tenant that had a lapse in lease, didn't sign the newly offered lease, so sent him notice to quit after avoiding our communication attempts.  Went to court to take next steps, but now he appears to be moving items out.  Is there a way I can have him confirm he is moving out so we don't have to continue with eviction process?  He still didn't pay rent for AUG and SEPT.  Can we take him to small claims court to try to get rent from him?

This is in Connecticut BTW.

thank you,

[Richard C.]

He has no lease. He has not communicated. I, recognize I said "I", would change locks immediately and put his property out. 

 Do NOT do this.  No, no, no.
