                    Before MELANSON, Chief Judge; GUTIERREZ, Judge;

                   ________________________________________________

PER CURIAM
       In 2010, Carlos Malvin Navarrete was found guilty of second degree murder, Idaho Code
§§ 18-4001, 18-4002, 18-4003, with a firearm enhancement, I.C. § 19-2520. The district court
sentenced Navarrete to a unified sentence of life with thirty years determinate. Approximately
four years later, Navarrete filed an Idaho Criminal Rule 35 motion for correction of an illegal
sentence, claiming that his sentence was illegal pursuant to I.C. § 19-2513. In Navarrete’s
Rule 35 motion he claimed I.C. § 19-2513 required the court to impose only the mandatory
minimum sentence of ten years for the second degree murder conviction. On July 3, 2014, the
district court denied the motion, concluding that Navarrete’s sentence was not illegal because
I.C. § 19-2513, in conjunction with I.C. § 18-4001, only limited the court’s discretion to giving a

                                                1
unified sentence of at least ten years. On October 2, 2015, Navarrete filed a motion to reconsider
the order denying his Rule 35 motion for correction of an illegal sentence, again claiming that his
sentence was illegal under I.C. § 19-2513. On November 9, 2015, the district court dismissed
the motion as untimely. Navarrete contends that the district court erred in dismissing the motion
for reconsideration.
         Navarrete acknowledges that the motion to reconsider was filed after the expiration of the
time for appeal of the Rule 35 order, and that pursuant to State v. Jakoski, 139 Idaho 352, 355, 79
P.3d 711, 714 (2003), the district court was without jurisdiction as to the motion for
reconsideration. Navarrete also acknowledges that the doctrine of res judicata bars consideration
of subsequent motions attempting to relitigate issues that are finally decided. State v. Rhoades,
134 Idaho 862, 863, 11 P.3d 481, 482 (2000). Finally, even on the merits, Navarrete’s claim is
contrary to established law. State v. Meier, 159 Idaho 712, 713, 366 P.3d 197, 198 (Ct. App.
2016).
         Therefore, the district court’s order dismissing Navarrete’s motion to reconsider the
denial of his Rule 35 motion is affirmed.
