PER CURIAM
Michael Brian Wilson was found guilty of aggravated assault with enhancement. Idaho
Code §§ 18-901(a) and 18-905(b). The district court sentenced Wilson to a unified term of
fifteen years, with a minimum period of confinement of three years, to run consecutively to any
sentence he was currently serving. Wilson appeals asserting that the district court abused its
discretion by imposing an excessive sentence.
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-
1
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, Wilson’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
