PER CURIAM
Richard Paul Isham pled guilty to violation of a no contact order. Idaho Code § 18-920. The district court sentenced Isham to a unified term five years, with two years determinate, and retained jurisdiction. After a period of retained jurisdiction, the district court relinquished jurisdiction and executed the underlying sentence. Isham appeals, contending 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. 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, the order relinquishing jurisdiction and executing the underlying sentence is affirmed.
