MEMORANDUM*


2
Esequiel Cortez-Acosta appeals the district court's revocation of his supervised release and imposition of an eighteen-month sentence.  We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.


3
Cortez-Acosta contends that there was insufficient evidence to establish that he violated the terms of his supervised release by attempting to manufacture methamphetamine.  This contention lacks merit.


4
A district court's decision to revoke a term of supervised release is reviewed for abuse of discretion.  See United States v. Schmidt, 99 F.3d 315, 320 (9th Cir.1996).  A court may revoke a term of supervised release if the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant violated a term of supervised release.  See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3);  Schmidt, 99 F.3d at 319.  A court abuses its discretion when the record contains no evidence to support its decision.  See Schmidt, 99 F.3d at 320.


5
There was evidence to support the district court's finding that Cortez-Acosta attempted to manufacture methamphetamine.  See 18 U .S.C. § 3583(e)(3);  Schmidt, 99 F.3d at 320.   First, Cortez-Acosta was identified by police as the male present at the active methamphetamine lab.  Second, documentary evidence found at the scene established that Cortez-Acosta had dominion and control over the property.  Accordingly, the district court did not abuse its discretion by revoking Cortez-Acosta's supervised release.  See Schmidt, 99 F.3d at 320.



**
 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.  See Fed.R.App.P. 34(a);  9th Cir.R. 34-4
