                   ______________________________________________

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

PER CURIAM
       Stanley Bruce Nelson pled guilty to felony driving under the influence. I.C. §§ 18-8004,
18-8005(5). In exchange for his guilty plea, an allegation that Nelson was a persistent violator
was dismissed. The district court sentenced Nelson to a unified term of ten years, with a
minimum period of confinement of three years. Nelson appeals.
       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


                                                1
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, Nelson’s judgment of conviction and sentence are affirmed.
