Before WILSON, PRYOR and ANDERSON, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:
               Case: 13-13485     Date Filed: 02/26/2014    Page: 2 of 2


      Richard Marcel Mazard appeals his sentence of 30 months of imprisonment

following his plea of guilty to robbery. See 18 U.S.C. § 1915(a). Mazard argues

that his sentence at the low end of the advisory guideline range is substantively

unreasonable. We affirm.

      Mazard invited any error involving the reasonableness of his sentence. “It is

a cardinal rule of appellate review that a party may not challenge as error a ruling

or other trial proceeding invited by that party.” United States v. Love, 
449 F.3d 1154
, 1157 (11th Cir. 2006) (quoting United States v. Ross, 
131 F.3d 970
, 988

(11th Cir. 1997)). At his sentencing hearing, Mazard “ask[ed] for, at a maximum, .

. . [a sentence of] 30 months” and later argued that “30 months . . .[was] very

significant, a long period of time . . . but appropriate in this case.” Mazard is

barred from challenging the reasonableness of a sentence at the low end of the

guideline range that he requested.

      We AFFIRM Mazard’s sentence.
