PER CURIAM
Lazaro Luna was convicted of possession of methamphetamine with intent to deliver,
Idaho Code § 37-2732(a)(1)(A). The district court imposed a unified sentence of ten years with
three years determinate and retained jurisdiction. At the conclusion of the retained jurisdiction
program, the court relinquished jurisdiction and ordered execution of Luna’s sentence. Luna
appeals, contending that the court abused its discretion in failing to sua sponte reduce his
sentence upon relinquishing jurisdiction.
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 in ordering execution of
Luna’s original sentence, without modification. Therefore, the order relinquishing jurisdiction
and directing execution of Luna’s previously suspended sentence is affirmed.
