                   ______________________________________________

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

PER CURIAM
       Jerry Dale Ingle pled guilty to felony driving under the influence. I.C. §§ 18-8004, 18-
8005. In exchange for his guilty plea, an additional charge was dismissed. The district court
sentenced Ingle to a unified term of ten years, with a minimum period of confinement of two
years, to run concurrent with an unrelated sentence. Ingle filed an I.C.R 35 motion, which the
district court denied. Ingle appeals.
       Sentencing is a matter for the trial court’s discretion. Both our standard of review and the
factors to be considered in evaluating the reasonableness of the sentence are well established.
See State v. Hernandez, 121 Idaho 114, 117-18, 822 P.2d 1011, 1014-15 (Ct. App. 1991); State
v. Lopez, 106 Idaho 447, 449-51, 680 P.2d 869, 871-73 (Ct. App. 1984); State v. Toohill, 103

                                                1
Idaho 565, 568, 650 P.2d 707, 710 (Ct. App. 1982). When reviewing the length of a sentence,
we consider the defendant’s entire sentence. State v. Oliver, 144 Idaho 722, 726, 170 P.3d 387,
391 (2007). Applying these standards, and having reviewed the record in this case, we cannot
say that the district court abused its discretion. Therefore, Ingle’s judgment of conviction and
sentence is affirmed.
