File a petition/motion with the court requesting the offense be 'expunged' from your record, accompanied by your reason(s) why it should be granted. A judge will review and consider it, and issue a ruling either granting or denying your request. CAUTION: Even if an expungement is granted it is NOT the same as a pardon. You will always be a convicted offender (felon or misdemeanant) and subject to any limitations associated with that status (i.e.- firearms possession - voting rights - etc). The only difference will be that your conviction will not appear on your PUBLIC record, only law enforrcement and the ocurts will be able to refer to it.
The word "expunge" means to completely remove something from the record. An example of using expunge in sentence is "He went to jail for something he did not do, so he got the court to expunge his record."

You cannot expunge from your record any conviction that was received as an adult. In NC, 16 and older is an adult. If you were convicted of anything, it cannot be expunged. Only charges that were dismissed can be expunged. Your DUI will be on your record forever. Sorry.
