If a defendant stipulates to be a convicted felon, can the government prove more than one criminal conviction?

2 Several other circuits have held admission of evidence of more than one conviction may be error if the defendant stipulates to being a convicted felon. United States v. Yeagin, 927 F.2d 798 (5th Cir.1991); United States v. King, 897 F.2d 911 (7th Cir.1990); cf. United States v. Poore, 594 F.2d 39 (4th Cir.1979) (court abused its discretion when it denied a motion to strike portions of the indictment describing the felony after defendant stipulated). Two circuits have held the government may prove more than one prior felony even if the defendant offers to stipulate. See United States v. Blade, 811 F.2d 461, 466 (8th Cir.1987); United States v. Burkhart, 545 F.2d 14, 15 (6th Cir.1976).
