       confinement of two years, for sexual abuse of a minor under sixteen years of
       age, affirmed.

       Eric D. Fredericksen, State Appellate Public Defender; Liz A. Allred, Deputy

                     Before GRATTON, Chief Judge; GUTIERREZ, Judge;
                                  and HUSKEY, Judge
                   ________________________________________________
       Christopher Michael Clingerman entered an Alford 1 plea to child sexual abuse of a minor
under sixteen years of age, felony, Idaho Code § 18-1506. The district court imposed a unified
sentence of twenty years, with two years determinate. Clingerman appeals, contending that his
sentence is excessive.
       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

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, Clingerman’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
