Give him a written notice to leave in 30 days. If he does not leave, file an eviction action in court. When you win and he still hasn't left, give him his 3-day notice to quit. If he is still there, get the sheriff to take him and his belongings out.

Yes, it sounds as if he has no legal standing to be there. If he will in leave voluntarily, call my office for an appointment or another attorney.

You will need to evict him. You must serve him with a 30 day notice to quit or leave and then file an unlawful detainer action with the court.

In Michigan, he is a tenant at sufferance you would have to get forms from the local court to evict.
