DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Donnino, J.), rendered August 22, 2012, convicting him of criminal contempt in the first degree (two counts), upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of the denial of that branch of his omnibus motion which was to suppress statements he made to law enforcement officials (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 257; People v Seaberg, 74 NY2d 1, 11).
SKELOS, J.P., CHAMBERS, LOTT and DUFFY, JJ., concur.
