                    Before GUTIERREZ, Chief Judge; GRATTON, Judge;
                                and MELANSON, Judge

PER CURIAM
       Thomas Richard Moore pled guilty to aiding and abetting malicious injury to property.
I.C. § 18-7001. The district court sentenced Moore to a unified term of three years, with a
minimum period of one and one-half years. Moore filed an I.C.R 35 motion, which the district
court denied. Moore appeals.
       A motion for reduction of sentence under I.C.R. 35 is essentially a plea for leniency,
addressed to the sound discretion of the court. State v. Knighton, 143 Idaho 318, 319, 144 P.3d
23, 24 (2006); State v. Allbee, 115 Idaho 845, 846, 771 P.2d 66, 67 (Ct. App. 1989). In
presenting a Rule 35 motion, the defendant must show that the sentence is excessive in light of
new or additional information subsequently provided to the district court in support of the
motion. State v. Huffman, 144 Idaho 201, 203, 159 P.3d 838, 840 (2007). Upon review of the

                                               1
record, including the new information submitted with Moore’s Rule 35 motion, we conclude no
abuse of discretion has been shown. Therefore, the district court’s order denying Moore’s Rule
35 motion is affirmed.
