PER CURIAM
Patricia Grace Workman pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance, felony, I.C. § 19-2513. A plea agreement was reached where, in part, Workman would plead guilty to possession of a controlled substance, felony, and in exchange, the State would dismiss other charges and recommend a five-year indeterminate sentence. At the sentence hearing, the State and Workman requested the district court impose an indeterminate five-year sentence. The district court imposed an indeterminate five-year sentence. Workman appeals contending that her 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, Workman's judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
