ORDER

Per Curiam

Justin Witt appeals his convictions for attempted possession of a controlled substance, attempted stealing by deceit, unlawful possession of a firearm, second-degree

felony murder, and armed criminal action. Witt contends the circuit court plainly erred in failing to sua sponte intervene and issue a corrective instruction when the State made an acquittal-first argument during closing arguments. For reasons explained in a Memorandum provided to the parties, we find no error and affirm the convictions. AFFIRMED. Rule 30.25(b).
