1Opinion of the Court

KONENKAMP, Justice.

A jury convicted Donald Hage of Second Degree Arson and four counts of Third Degree Arson and he pleaded guilty to a Part II Information charging him as an Habitual Offender. On appeal, he raises the following issues:

I. Was the evidence sufficient to sustain a conviction for Third Degree Arson (Count IX)?

II. Was the evidence sufficient to sustain the convictions generally?

III. Did the trial court abuse its discretion by not allowing evidence of prior burglaries at one of the arson sites?

IV. Did the missing element in the Third Degree Arson instruction constitute plain error?
