                      Before GRATTON, Chief Judge; HUSKEY, Judge;

                   ________________________________________________

PER CURIAM
       Jessica May Speth pleaded guilty to possession of a forged check, Idaho Code §§ 18-
3605, 18-204. The district court granted a withheld judgment and placed Speth on probation.
Subsequently, Speth admitted to violating the terms of the probation. The district court revoked
probation and the withheld judgment and sentenced Speth to a unified eight-year sentence, with
three years determinate, and retained jurisdiction.      After receipt of an addendum to the
presentence investigation report, the district court relinquished jurisdiction without a hearing.
Speth filed a motion to reconsider the order relinquishing jurisdiction. The district court held
that it did not have jurisdiction to reinstate jurisdiction over Speth and denied the motion. Speth

                                                1
appeals, asserting the district court abused its discretion by denying her motion to reconsider the
order relinquishing jurisdiction.
       The Idaho Rules of Criminal Procedure have no rule similar to Idaho Rule of Civil
Procedure 11.2(1) motion for reconsideration. State v. Flores, 162 Idaho 298, 302 n.1, 396 P.3d
1180, 1184 n.1 (2017). In Flores, the district court considered Flores’s motion to reconsider
which sought the district court to reinstate jurisdiction after the district court relinquished
jurisdiction. The Idaho Supreme Court held:
               We first observe that Flores’s motion was filed under Idaho Criminal Rule
       35 as a motion to reconsider. However, Rule 35 does not create a general basis
       for requesting reconsideration of an order or a judgment in the criminal context.
       Rule 35 instead narrowly operates to permit the correction, modification, or
       reduction of criminal sentences in certain instances. Flores’s request for
       jurisdiction to be reinstated does not constitute a correction, modification, or
       reduction of a criminal sentence.
Id. at 301-02, 396 P.3d at 1183-84. A request to reinstate jurisdiction does not constitute a
correction, modification, or reduction of a criminal sentence and I.C.R. 35 is not applicable to a
motion to reinstate jurisdiction after it has been relinquished. Id. at 302, 396 P.3d at 1184. The
Flores Court held “there is no criminal procedural rule that provides a basis to reconsider a
decision” denying a request for jurisdiction to be reinstated. Id. at 301 n.1, 396 P.3d at 1184 n.1.
       Therefore, the district court’s order denying Speth’s motion to reconsider the order
relinquishing jurisdiction is affirmed.
