PER CURIAM

Courtney Sue Reschke pled guilty to six counts of lewd conduct with a minor child under
sixteen. I.C. $ 18-1508. In exchange for her guilty pleas, additional charges were dismissed.
The district court sentenced Reschke to concurrent unified terms of twenty years, with minimum
periods of confinement of three years. Reschke appeals.l

Sentencing is a maffer 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

t Reschke also pled guilty to and was sentenced for seven misdemeanor counts of
dispensing alcohol to a minor. However, she does not challenge these sentences upon appeal.

15 (Ct. App. 1991); State v. Inpez, 106 Idalro M7, M9-51, 680 P.2d 869, 871-73 (Ct. App.
1934); State v. Toohill,l03 Idatro 565, 568,650 P.2d 707,710 (Ct. App. 1982). When reviewing
the length of a seirtence, we consider the defendant's entile sentence. Stote v. Oliver,l44 Idaho

722,726, 170 P.3d 387, 391 QW7). Applying these standrds, and having reviewed the record
in this case, we cannot say that the distict court abused its discretion.
Therefore, Reschke's judgment of conviction and sentences are affinned.
