1Opinion of the Court

VOIGT, Justice.

[¶1] The appellant was convicted of one count of sexual abuse of a minor and one count of attempted sexual abuse of a minor. In this appeal from those convictions, the appellant challenges the district court's admission of evidence of a prior conviction, and he accuses the prosecutor of committing misconduct during closing argument. Finally, he relies upon the cumulative error doctrine. Finding no error, we affirm.

ISSUES

[¶2] 1. Does the doctrine of invited error bar the appellant from raising in this appeal issues concerning the admission of evidence of his prior conviction?
