Renewing the lease is the option of the lessor. Your position in this contract is the lessee. The landlord is required to give you notice of termination of a leasehold, meaning on a one years lease, they must inform you that at the end of the leasehold (your rental contract) that the tenancy will not be renewed. Because of the likelihood that a landlord would forget to inform a tenant or a tenant would forget over the course of a year, many jurisdictions require that a notice to quit at the end of the lease be given at least 30 days prior to the lease end date.

However, you must put yourself in the position of the landlord. They have this property which every year is incurring them the cost of maintenance, mortgage, insurance, taxes, and utilities (in some cases) and the income (rent) generated from this property mitigates these costs. Imagine that these bills amount to $1400 a year, If your rent is $1500 a month and the landlord only gets 1300, they're in jeopardy of not paying something that could result in their financial failure. The likelihood of renewing a leasehold of a delinquent renter/lessor is small.

Remember that if you do not pay your late fee's, the landlord can withhold them from your security deposit. You should pay your late fee's and show due regard with paying your financial obligations on time, which may improve the likelihood of a lease renewal.

Can the police take you to jail for an eviction if you haven't went to court?

Only if you want to stay! If you agree to leave, there is no dispute for a court to bother with. It is best to go to court to defend yourself and to plead your case, but if you just want to bail, you can do that too and the judge will adjudicate against you and your lease (if it's still intact) will be negated.
