OPINION

HINOJOSA, Justice.

The trial court granted forfeiture of $103,653.00 in U.S. currency, which the State had alleged was derived from, used for, or intended to be used for the distribution, delivery, or sale of a controlled substance in violation of Tex.Rev.Civ.Stat.Ann. art. 4476-15, § 5.03 (Vernon Supp.1989) (repealed). By one point of error, appellant contends that the trial court lacked jurisdiction because the State failed to timely allege that the seizure occurred in Nueces County, Texas, a fact essential to the trial court’s jurisdiction. We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
