One tenant wants to stay, other won't leave

Hi BP!

I currently have a house rented with 2 tenants, jointly on the lease. It ends June 24th and Tenant A wants to stay and renew and has a new person he would like to put on the lease in place of Tenant B. Normally this wouldn't be an issue but Tenant B is being very difficult to deal with as far as signing roommate release forms, agreement to vacate etc. I'm nervous he won't leave at lease expiration.

My question is: If I sign a renewal lease with Tenant A and his new person effective the day after the old lease expires and Tenant B isn't moved/won't move out what do I need to do...remove belongings as lease has expired, start an eviction process and tell Tenant A's new resident that he just has to wait...Thoughts?
