I.
We review de novo the district court’s authority to modify Juda’s terms of
supervised release, United States v. Miller, 205 F.3d 1098, 1100 (9th Cir. 2000), and
determine that, having properly considered the statutorily enumerated factors, there
was full authority to modify Juda’s conditions of supervised release under 18 U.S.C.
§ 3583(e)(2). See United States v. Gross, 307 F.3d 1043, 1044 (2002). Changed
circumstances were not required to modify those conditions. See Miller, 205 F.3d at
1100; see also, e.g., United States v. Navarro-Espinosa, 30 F.3d 1169, 1171 (9th Cir.
1994).
Reviewing for abuse of discretion, United States v. Napulou, 593 F.3d 1041,
1044 (9th Cir. 2010), we hold that the imposition of these particular conditions was
not an abuse of discretion in light of the nature of Juda’s original offense and post-
release behavior. See United States v. King, 608 F.3d 1122, 1131 (9th Cir. 2010).
II.
While we may consider whether district courts have authority to revoke a term
of supervised release under 18 U.S.C. § 3583, see, e.g., United States v. Wing, 682
F.3d 861, 863 (9th Cir. 2012), the validity of a conviction may not be collaterally
attacked in, or on appeal from, a supervised release revocation proceeding. United
States v. Simmons, 812 F.2d 561, 563 (9th Cir. 1987) (citing United States v. Lustig,

-- 2 of 3 --

555 F.2d 751, 753 (9th Cir. 1977)) (“[A] conviction may be collaterally attacked only
in a separate proceeding under 28 U.S.C. § 2255, and a court should consider the
petition for probation revocation as if the underlying conviction was unquestioned.”).
Thus, Juda may not challenge the district court’s jurisdiction over the revocation
proceedings based on a claim that his underlying sentence is invalid. See, e.g., United
States v. Ruiz-Camarena, 141 F. App’x 580, 581 (9th Cir. 2005) (citing Simmons, 812
F.2d at 563) (rejecting a similar challenge to a district court’s jurisdiction to consider
a petition for revocation of supervised release).
AFFIRMED.
