Fleming, Deputy Attorney General, Boise, for respondent. ________________________________________________ Before HUSKEY, Judge; LORELLO, Judge; and BRAILSFORD, Judge ________________________________________________ PER CURIAM Lloyd Harrison Harrod, III pleaded guilty to aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, Idaho Code §§ 18-915, 18-901, 18-905, with a firearm enhancement, § 19-2520; eluding a peace officer, I.C. § 49-1404(2); and unlawful possession of a firearm I.C. § 18-3316. The district court imposed a unified twenty-five-year sentence, with eight years determinate, for the aggravated assault charge and a five-year determinate sentence for each of the other two charges. All sentences were ordered to run concurrently with one another. Harrod appeals, contending that his sentence is excessive. 1 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, Harrod’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed. 2
