Jersey City rooming house question

There are a few posts about renting rooms, rooming house situations etc. here. Would like to connect with anyone who runs one, has gotten a zoning violation specifically in Jersey City about it, good attorneys etc. I have an owner occupied unit where there are some rooms rented and one of the tenants seems to be playing the landlord and moved in and starting calling city ordinance, zoning right after to get landlord into trouble, claiming illegal occupancy etc. 

Eviction court date is this week for this tenant and zoning violation 1st letter came 10 days ago, hopefully the non-payment of rent eviction/zoning violation letter (which provides 20 days to appeal, correct single room occupancy issue) dont interfere?
