Tenant files for chapter7 bankruptcy?
When a tenant files for bankruptcy, this will apply to any money tenant owes. In the case of rents, which is not a form of credit, you still must pay to landlord your rent or face the probability of eviction. If you owe your landlord back rent and declare bankruptcy, then you can include this back rent as part of your debt. Back rent is considered a form of credit, because you owe this money to your landlord and he has continued to grant you the right to stay there. It should be noted that whenever a landlord commences eviction proceedings against a tenant, it is never on the grounds of owing back rent. Your landlord's claims against you in small claims court covers that issue.
Not granted permission to sublet can you sue for back rent?
You cannot sue for back rent to a tenant who has sublet in the apartment, when you the landlord did not give permission for that to happen in the first place.

You could write into the lease that if you tenant does sublet, a fee can be charged for every month the subletting occurs, until the subletting ends.

In the State of Florida what is the process to get someone out of your home who is not a tenant does not pay rent is not a relative or a friend?
The process is the same for any tenant the landlord wants to evict. First the tenant must be served a 30-day notice if the rent is month-to-month, even if the "tenant" has not paid one penny towards their rent (if you agreed to let them live there rent-free) When the 30-day notice has expired you must then file eviction proceedings. First you must serve a three-day notice stating that they must pay their rent or move out. When that notice has expired you must then file a petition or complaint for eviction. Each state has their own process by which this must be done. In Florida you must file the petition with the county court's clerk's office. A summons will then be served upon the tenant by a sheriff's deputy and the tenant must follow the directions on the Summons regarding how to answer their Summons.
