More details to this question:
I am an occupied tenant in an apartment that is paid for by an organization. They pay the rent and utilities even though the utilities are in my name. If they want me to leave can they just kick me of or do they have to give me notice?

To be removed from a residential apartment, the landlord has to go through the eviction process. Based upon the limited facts provided, the landlord preferably file the proper notices, etc. In addition, as in many states, if not all, "self help" is frowned upon by the Courts.
