Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
William Cooper directly appeals after the district court revoked his supervised release. Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude that the district court did not clearly err in finding that the government demonstrated by a preponderance of the evidence that Cooper violated the conditions of his supervised release. See 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(3) (court may revoke supervised release if it finds by preponderance of evidence that defendant violated conditions of supervised release); United States v. Perkins, 526 F.3d 1107, 1109 (8th Cir. 2008) (fact-finding as to whether violation occurred is reviewed for clear error). Accordingly, we affirm.
. The Honorable John A. Jarvey, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa.
