A more thorough explanation:

An escheat grant is a type of grant where the government grants ownership of land that has been escheated (taken back) from a previous owner who died without heirs or abandoned the property. The government then gives the land to a new owner.

• If someone dies without a will or heirs, their property may be escheated to the government. The government can then grant the property to a new owner through an escheat grant.
• In some cases, the government may take back land from a previous owner who has abandoned it. The government can then grant the land to a new owner through an escheat grant.

These examples illustrate how an escheat grant works. When someone dies without heirs or abandons their property, the government can take ownership of the land. Instead of keeping the land, the government can grant it to a new owner through an escheat grant.
