PER CURIAM
Jeffrey Allen Cadwallader pled guilty to grand theft, Idaho Code §§ 18-2403(1), 18-
2407(1)(b), 18-2409. In exchange for his guilty plea, additional charges were dismissed. The
district court imposed a unified sentence of fourteen years, with a minimum period of
confinement of two years. Cadwallader 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
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.

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