Yes, there is a process that can be pursued for expungement of Class C misdemeanors. The defendant must plead not guilty to pursue expungement, but the process is fairly difficult and there are no guarantees.
Below is an article about expungement.
Another View: You need not have pled 'not guilty' in order to qualify to petition for an expungement. Every states' law is different on this procedure but in many (all?) states you may petition for expungement even after having been found guilty - however, you must have completed the entire term of your sentence in order to even start the process.
ADDED: You need to ask about your state specifically. Some states do not allow expungement of convictions at all. Some only allow arrests to be expunged, and only when the arrest does not result in a conviction. Other states allow you to expunge the conviction upon completion of your sentence.
