State, __ N.E. 3d __ (Ind. 2017), the trial court did not abuse its discretion in admitting into evidence the gun of Defendant’s girlfriend, who was also convicted of the same offenses; and (2) because Defendant failed to seek a separate trial or a limiting instruction he waived any argument that the gun’s admission denied him a fair trial, and there was no fundamental error in the trial court’s decision not to give a limiting instruction sua sponte.
