MEMORANDUM OPINION

BRIAN QUINN, Justice.

Mason Bristol and JBW Land and Minerals, Inc. (Bristol) appeal from a final judgment entered in favor of Placid Oil Company (Placid). Their three points of error concern venue. That is, Bristol contends that error occurred when venue was transferred from Tarrant to Yoakum County, Texas. So too do they assert that any venue dispute was waived because Placid 1) did not timely secure a hearing on its motion to transfer and 2) invoked the judicial power of the Tarrant County court before the motion was granted. We affirm.
