THIS IS AN UNPUBLISHED OPINION AND SHALL NOT BE CITED AS AUTHORITY

PER CURIAM

Larry Jean Tannahill pled guilty to second degree kidnapping, I.C. §§ 18-4501 and 18-4503, and felony domestic violence, I.C. §§ 18-903 and 18-918(2)(a). The district court sentenced Tannahill to a unified term of twenty-five years, with a minimum period of confinement of fourteen years, for second degree kidnapping and a concurrent determinate term of ten years for felony domestic violence. Tannahill 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 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, Tannahill's judgment of conviction and sentences are affirmed.
