PER CURIAM
Jose Martin Cruz-Mendez pled guilty to trafficking in cocaine. Idaho Code § 37-2732B(a)(2)(A). The district court sentenced Cruz-Mendez to a unified term of seven years, with a minimum period of confinement of three years. Cruz-Mendez appeals asserting that the district court abused its discretion by imposing an excessive sentence.
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. Thomson v. Olsen, 147 Idaho 99, 106, 205 P.3d 1235, 1242 (2009). One may not complain of errors one has consented to or acquiesced in. Id. In short, invited errors are not reversible. Id. This doctrine applies to sentencing decisions as well as rulings made during trial. State v. Leyva, 117 Idaho 462, 465, 788 P.2d 864, 867 (Ct. App. 1990). Having requested the sentencing determination he received, Cruz-Mendez cannot now challenge the district court's sentencing determination as an abuse of the court's discretion.
Therefore, Cruz-Mendez's judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
