PER CURIAM
       Jerry Olean Mullenix, Jr. was convicted of aggravated assault, Idaho Code §§ 18-801(b),
18-905(a). The district court imposed a unified five-year sentence with a two-year determinate
term, but after a period of retained jurisdiction, suspended the sentence and placed Mullenix on
probation. Subsequently, Mullenix admitted to violating several terms of the probation, and the
district court consequently revoked probation and ordered execution of the original sentence.
Mullenix appeals, contending that the district court abused its discretion in revoking probation
and in failing to reduce his sentence sua sponte upon revoking probation.




                                                1
       It is within the trial court’s discretion to revoke probation if any of the terms and
conditions of the probation have been violated. I.C. §§ 19-2603, 20-222; State v. Beckett, 122
Idaho 324, 325, 834 P.2d 326, 327 (Ct. App. 1992); State v. Adams, 115 Idaho 1053, 1054, 772
P.2d 260, 261 (Ct. App. 1989); State v. Hass, 114 Idaho 554, 558, 758 P.2d 713, 717 (Ct. App.
1988). In determining whether to revoke probation, a court must examine whether the probation
is achieving the goal of rehabilitation and is consistent with the protection of society. State v.
Upton, 127 Idaho 274, 275, 899 P.2d 984, 985 (Ct. App. 1995); Beckett, 122 Idaho at 325, 834
P.2d at 327; Hass, 114 Idaho at 558, 758 P.2d at 717. A decision to revoke probation will be
disturbed on appeal only upon a showing that the trial court abused its discretion. Beckett, 122
Idaho at 325, 834 P.2d at 327. In reviewing the propriety of a probation revocation, the focus of
the inquiry is the conduct underlying the trial court’s decision to revoke probation. State v.
Morgan, 153 Idaho 618, 621, 288 P.3d 835, 838 (Ct. App. 2012). Thus, this Court will consider
the elements of the record before the trial court relevant to the revocation of probation issues
which are properly made part of the record on appeal. Id. Applying the foregoing standards, and
having reviewed the record in this case, we cannot say that the district court abused its discretion
in revoking Mullenix’s probation.
       Our decision in State v. Clontz, 156 Idaho 787, 792, 331 P.3d 529, 534 (Ct. App. 2014),
forecloses Mullenix’s claim that the district court erred by failing to sua sponte reduce his
sentence upon revoking probation. Therefore, we will not address this claim.
       The order revoking probation and directing execution of Mullenix’s previously
suspended sentence is affirmed.
