PER CURIAM
Adren Elsworth Lewis pled guilty to one count of sex offender-fail to register change of
address or name, Idaho Code § 18-8309, and one count of aggravated assault, I.C. § 18-
901(b), -905(a). The district court imposed and executed a unified sentence of ten years, with three
years determinate, for the failure to register, and a concurrent unified sentence of five years, with
three years determinate, for the aggravated assault. Lewis appeals, contending that his sentence is
excessive as the district court should have retained jurisdiction rather than executing the
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-
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, Lewis’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
