PER CURIAM
Pursuant to a plea agreement, Kywan Molique Fleors pled guilty to burglary. I.C. § 18-
1401. In exchange for his guilty plea, an additional charge was dismissed. The parties agreed to
a stipulated sentence. The district court followed the parties’ recommendation, sentencing Fleors
to a unified term of ten years, with a minimum period of confinement of six months. Fleors filed
an I.C.R. 35 motion, which the district court denied. Fleors appeals.
Mindful that Fleors received the sentence he asked for, he asserts that his sentence is
excessive. The doctrine of invited error applies to estop a party from asserting an error when his
or her own conduct induces the commission of the error. State v. Atkinson, 124 Idaho 816, 819,
864 P.2d 654, 657 (Ct. App. 1993). One may not complain of errors one has consented to or

acquiesced in. State v. Caudill, 109 Idaho 222, 226, 706 P.2d 456, 460 (1985); State v. Lee, 131
Idaho 600, 605, 961 P.2d 1203, 1208 (Ct. App. 1998). In short, invited errors are not reversible.
State v. Gittins, 129 Idaho 54, 58, 921 P.2d 754, 758 (Ct. App. 1996). This doctrine applies to
sentencing decisions as well as rulings made during trial. State v. Griffith, 110 Idaho 613, 614,
716 P.2d 1385, 1386 (Ct. App. 1986).
Therefore, because Fleors received the sentence he requested, he may not complain that
the district court abused its discretion. Therefore, Fleors’s judgment of conviction and sentence
are affirmed.
