# §2808.12. May I receive a grant if I am or have been in trespass?


Until you satisfy your liability for a trespass, BLM will not process any applications you have pending for any activity on BLM-administered lands. A history of trespass will not necessarily disqualify you from receiving a grant. In order to correct a trespass, you must apply under the procedures described at [subpart 2804](/cfr/43/subpart2804.md) of this part. BLM will process your application as if it were a new use. Prior unauthorized use does not create a preference for receiving a grant.
