PER CURIAM
Angela Michelle Robling pled guilty to two counts of forgery. Idaho Code § 18-3601.
The district court sentenced Robling to concurrent unified sentences of five years with two years
determinate. Robling filed an Idaho Criminal Rule 35 motion, which the district court denied.
Robling appeals asserting the district court abused its discretion by failing to grant her Rule 35
motion.
A motion for reduction of sentence under I.C.R. 35 is essentially a plea for leniency,
addressed to the sound discretion of the court. State v. Knighton, 143 Idaho 318, 319, 144 P.3d
23, 24 (2006); State v. Gill, 150 Idaho 183, 186, 244 P.3d 1269, 1272 (Ct. App. 2010). In
1
presenting a Rule 35 motion, the defendant must show that the sentence is excessive in light of
new or additional information subsequently provided to the district court in support of the
motion. State v. Huffman, 144 Idaho 201, 203, 159 P.3d 838, 840 (2007). Upon review of the
record, including the new information submitted with Robling’s Rule 35 motion, we conclude no
abuse of discretion has been shown. Therefore, the district court’s order denying Robling’s Rule
35 motion is affirmed.
