THIS IS AN UNPUBLISHED OPINION AND SHALL NOT BE CITED AS AUTHORITY

PER CURIAM.

Marc Robert Inabnet was convicted of accessory to a felony, Idaho Code § 18-205, and perjury, I.C. § 18-5401. The district court imposed concurrent unified sentences of five years with one and one-half years determinate for the accessory charge, and six years with one and one-half years determinate for perjury. Inabnet filed an Idaho Criminal Rule 35 motion, which the district court denied. Inabnet appeals the denial of his motion.

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 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). In conducting our review of the grant or denial of a Rule 35 motion, we apply the same criteria used for determining the reasonableness of the original sentence. State v. Forde, 113 Idaho 21, 22, 740 P.2d 63, 64 (Ct. App. 1987); Lopez, 106 Idaho at 449-51, 680 P.2d at 871-73. Upon review of the record, including any new information submitted with Inabnet's Rule 35 motion, we conclude no abuse of discretion has been shown. Therefore, the district court's order denying Inabnet's Rule 35 motion is affirmed.
