                     Before GUTIERREZ, Chief Judge; LANSING, Judge;
                                 and GRATTON, Judge

PER CURIAM
       Kyle J. Reid pled guilty to felony injury to a child, Idaho Code § 18-1501(1). The district
court imposed a unified term of eight years, with a minimum period of confinement of two years,
and retained jurisdiction. The district court ultimately relinquished jurisdiction. Reid filed a
timely Rule 35 motion for reduction of sentence, which the district court denied.            Reid
subsequently filed a second Rule 35 motion for correction of a sentence imposed in an illegal
manner, which the district court also denied. Reid appeals from the denial of his second Rule 35
motion.
       Reid argues that the district court abused its discretion by denying his Rule 35 motion for
correction of a sentence imposed in an illegal manner because the court did not conduct a hearing

                                                1
or otherwise give him an opportunity to respond to the addendum to the presentence
investigation report (APSI). In his opening brief, Reid acknowledges that he did not have a due
process right to respond to the APSI. State v. Goodlett, 139 Idaho 262, 265, 77 P.3d 487, 490
(Ct. App. 2003). He also acknowledges that there exists no constitutional requirement of a
hearing either at the correctional facility or in the trial court prior to the relinquishment of
jurisdiction. State v. Coassolo, 136 Idaho 138, 141, 30 P.3d 293, 296 (2001). Reid nevertheless
maintains that the district court erred in failing to hold a hearing at which Reid would have had
an opportunity to correct any inaccuracies in the APSI. Where the district court was not required
to hold a hearing or invite Reid’s response to the APSI before relinquishing jurisdiction, Reid has
failed to establish that the court erred by not doing so.
       Accordingly, Reid has failed to establish any error in the district court’s denial of his
Rule 35 motion. The order of the district court denying Reid’s Rule 35 motion is affirmed.
