How to evict a minor and keep the parent?

[Rich E.]

I have been a landlord for quite a while but this is a new on for me.

The Situation:  A father and his 17 year old son live in one of my apartments.  Their one year lease recently expired and they are on month-to-month.  The son was listed on the 1-year lease.  The son has broken windows, keeps the tenants up all night, throws garage everywhere, etc.  I have told the father the son needs to leave in the past and he got him out for a while.  He is back once again and is disturbing the other tenants.  This time, I want to kick him out with official documentation.  The father wants to stay and he is a good tenant that just happens to have a problem child.  Given the discussions I have had with him, I think he will honor keeping the child away going forward.

Question:  What is the proper documentation process for this?  Should I give a 30 day notice to end their tenancy and then sign a new lease with only the father listed on the lease?  Any other thoughts?
