PER CURIAM
Damian Lopez-Suazo was found guilty of trafficking in methamphetamine. I.C. § 37-
2732B(a)(4). The district court sentenced Lopez-Suazo to a unified term of fifteen years, with a
minimum period of confinement of three years, to run consecutive to another unrelated sentence
in Nevada. Lopez-Suazo filed an I.C.R 35 motion, which the district court denied. Lopez-Suazo
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 and

need not be repeated here. 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 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, Lopez-Suazo’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
