Best Answer

When a person dies and the authorities are notified by the hospital, police, neighbors, mail carrier, etc., a diligent search is made for any next of kin. If no next of kin can be found and the decedent owns property, the county or state attorney can petition to be appointed the adminstrator of the estate and the property will eventually escheat to the state. This process may vary in different jurisdictions.
