                        Before HUSKEY, Judge; LORELLO, Judge;

PER CURIAM
       Bobby Lee Alloway pled guilty to two counts of felony injury to children, Idaho
Code § 18-1501(1). In exchange for his guilty plea, additional charges were dismissed. The
district court imposed concurrent, unified sentences of ten years with two years determinate, to
run concurrently with a sentence in a separate case. Alloway filed an Idaho Criminal Rule 35
motion for reduction of his sentences, which the district court denied. Alloway 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

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