                     Before GUTIERREZ, Chief Judge; GRATTON, Judge;

PER CURIAM
       Kenneth Paul Worth pled guilty to burglary. I.C. § 18-1401. The district court sentenced
Worth to a unified term of ten years, with a minimum period of confinement of five years;
suspended the sentence; and placed Worth on probation. Twice Worth admitted to violating the
terms of his probation and both times the district court revoked probation, retained jurisdiction,
and again reinstated Worth on probation. Thereafter, Worth admitted to violating the terms of
his probation a third time.    The district court revoked probation and ordered execution of
Worth’s sentence. However, the district court reduced Worth’s sentence to a unified term of ten
years, with a minimum period of confinement of three years. Worth appeals, arguing that the




                                                1
district court should have further sua sponte reduced Worth’s sentence upon revocation of
probation.
       Our decision in State v. Clontz, 156 Idaho 787, 792, 331 P.3d 529, 534 (Ct. App. 2014)
forecloses a claim that a district court erred by failing to sua sponte reduce an underlying
sentence upon revocation of probation. Therefore, we will not further address Worth’s claim and
the district court’s order revoking probation is affirmed.
