[Landlord-US-FL] Difference between Tenant and Lodger

I am an authorized representative and property manager for a landlord in Broward County, Florida. I am currently in the process of eviction with a live in tenant (I reside on the property). The reasons for eviction is failure to cure 7day notice of unauthorized occupant, refusal to acknowledge landlord's and management's authority, failure to Cooperate with property management, interfere with maintenance, disruptive and intrusive behavior of others and property management and severe intimidation tactics.

Yesterday was the mediation and the mediator allowed tenant's mother to join mediation without the permission of both parties. Mediation questioned my position as legal authorized representative (with submitted documents from owner) and didn't seem knowledgeable for her position. Mediation was postponed to see if tenants mother (a cosigner/non tenant) can participate in the mediation as well as have the landlord attend.

Today, I learned that she would be considered a lodger due to renting a room and shared living spaces with me and others. She has a yearly lease that ends in June. I was advised that I can proceed to dismiss the case and create a new one. I just want to make sure the defendant is legally classified as lodger and need direction.

Honestly, I am patient and kind to the renter. But, she is pushing non compliance, verbally disrespectful and is argumentative to the point I am avoiding her and can't proceed with my duties. I can feel the next altercation is physical confrontation.
