NJ Landlords: ever evicted for anything but non-payment?

I have otherwise good tenants who can't help colonizing the hallway with their crap blocking the way of other tenants even after speaking to them several times. Before I make dire threats I want to know where I actually stand. I'm doubting I could actually successfully evict them for noncompliance, and it would just become a mess, it's exactly the kind of conflict in which NJ is tenant friendly, while nonpayment has zero tolerance.  The alternative is a nice big rent hike at the limit of legal acceptability, like 10%, and the explicit threat of keeping them coming. Right now they're MtM. Thoughts?
