Eviction of tenant w/o lease in NJ

[Larry Collins]

I think this is a simple question. I have a tenant whose lease is coming to an end. Without a lease, do I still need to go through the eviction process, or is there an easier legal remedy, like changing the locks.

I'm hoping for the latter, but fear it's the former.... even if they don't have a lease.

Thanks for any feedback.
