PER CURIAM
Jose Antonio Martinez, Jr., was found guilty of felony domestic violence. Idaho Code
§§ 18-903(a), 18-918. The district court sentenced Martinez to a unified term of six years with
two years determinate, suspended the sentence, and placed Martinez on probation for six years.
Martinez 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, Martinez’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
