The Government can take your land for any reason seen fit by the government for use by the government. They can take your land for an expansion of highways, schools, or any reason under the Right of Escheat by the State or by the federal government! In most cases they exercise this right when a land owner or property owner dies and leaves the property unkept or unowned...But they can and do take properties each year that are legitimately owned and operated properties. I have witnesses the Escheat of property owned by a friend of mine and given to the University of Houston...
