Subleasing is the act of renting out your home, or part thereof, to someone else while you are renting the home yourself. The most common form of subleasing is getting a roommate to help you with your apartment/home expenses. Basically you become that person's landlord. A sublease agreement, therefore, is an agreement between you and your roommate, similar to a lease between you and your landlord. Subleasing is usually something that landlords don't allow. If they do then your sublease agreement can be worked out between you and the person you are about to sublease or rent out to. Other forms of subleasing may be to rent out the entire unit to someone else while you are paying your landlord the rent for the property, which often means pocketing the difference (profit). One example of subleasing an entire unit is when a person is paying low rent for the unit and charges more rent than the pricipal tenant is paying, such as if the original renter is participating in a rental assistance program, something that is highly illegal.

A Lease is between the owners of a property and the tenant.

Some cases, as with section housing, it is illegal to sublease.
How can you ask non tenant to move out?
If the person has the legal right to live there on a month-to-month basis, he is a tenant. But we are presuming that you, the landlord, didn't rent the unit out to this person: perhaps your tenant did, known as subleasing. If you, the landlord, allowed this, then you have to have your tenant evict the sub-tenant. If you didn't allow this, then you have to enforce the terms of the lease, and make your tenant correct this problem immediately or you can evict him, which automatically forces the sub-tenant out.
Can a landlord lock out a sub-lesser out of their apartment?
If you sub-lease a unit, then the tenant that leases to you is considered your Landlord. Their landlord is NOT the sub-lessee's landlord. The master landlord, who usually does not allow subleasing, is not bound by the Landlord/Tenant Act toward the sub-lessee. So if they kick out your sub-landlord, they are kicking out EVERYONE. The master landlord cannot lock out his tenant unless they legally evict that tenant. Since a sub-lessee doesn't have the same rights, then they too are locked out.
