The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Harsh, 119 F.3d 7 (9th Cir. 1997):
A federal district court has broad authority to revoke probation. United States v. Laughlin, 933 F.2d 786, 788 (9th Cir.1991). Revocation decisions are reviewed for an abuse of discretion. Id. A district court abuses its discretion when the record contains no evidence to support its decision. United States v. Schmidt, 99 F.3d 315, 320 (9th Cir.1996).
