PER CURIAM
       Brittany Kay Burrell pleaded guilty to possession of controlled substance,
methamphetamine, Idaho Code § 37-2732(c)(1). The district court imposed a withheld judgment
and placed Burrell on probation. Subsequently, Burrell admitted violating the terms of probation
and the district court revoked the withheld judgment, imposed a unified five-year sentence, with
two years determinate, suspended the sentence, and retained jurisdiction. Following a period of
retained jurisdiction, the district court suspended the sentence and placed Burrell on probation.
Again, Burrell admitted to violating the terms of probation, and the district placed Burrell on
another period of probation. Burrell filed an Idaho Criminal Rule 35 motion to reduce sentence.
Once again, Burrell admitted violating the terms of her probation and the district court


                                               1
consequently revoked probation and ordered execution of the sentence without reducing the
sentence.   Burrell appeals, contending the district court abused its discretion in revoking
probation and executing the underlying sentence.
       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 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. The court may, after a probation violation
has been established, order that the suspended sentence be executed or, in the alternative, the
court is authorized under I.C.R. 35 to reduce the sentence. Beckett, 122 Idaho at 325, 834 P.2d at
327; State v. Marks, 116 Idaho 976, 977, 783 P.2d 315, 316 (Ct. App. 1989). The court may also
order a period of retained jurisdiction. State v. Urrabazo, 150 Idaho 158, 162, 244 P.3d 1244,
1248 (2010). 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 the district court abused its discretion in revoking probation and ordering execution of
Burrell’s sentence without a reduction. Therefore, the order revoking probation and directing
execution of Burrell’s previously suspended sentence is affirmed.
