Depending on where you are (state, assuming you are in the U.S.), what you tried to give him may suffice as a notice to quit. How much time did you give him to either pay or get out? Normally, at least 3 days is required, other places possibly more.
Then, when the requisite time has happened, you would file suit to have him evicted. A hearing would be scheduled, he and his wife would be served with process, and at the hearing the judge would sign an order that if they are not out by a time certain the police are to make them leave.
