If the occupants are not tenants, and the owner did not acquire the property by foreclosure, the typical eviction process (unlawful detainer) does not apply. The property owner must bring an ejectment action.
Ejectment is required against non-tenants. It may also be possible to evict tenants with an ejectment action, but this is not always ideal, and courts may reject an ejectment action against a tenant in some situations.
Consult with an attorney for advice about ejectment.
