ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE
This is an appeal from a district court order revoking appellant John L. Ortega's probation. Sixth Judicial District Court, Humboldt County; Michael Montero, Judge.
Ortega contends that the district court abused its discretion by relying on the Division of Parole and Probation's recommendation of revocation. We disagree.
The decision to revoke probation is within the broad discretion of the district court and will not be disturbed absent a clear showing of abuse. Lewis v. State, 90 Nev. 436, 438, 529 P.2d 796, 797 (1974). At Ortega's probation violation hearing, he admitted to violating six conditions of his probation. Accordingly, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion by revoking Ortega's probation and ordering that his sentence be executed, see NRS 176A.630(4), and we
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
