I don’t know N.C. law, but the few states in which I’ve dealt with expungements do not allow a DUI to be expunged or sealed.

Unless you worked something out in your plea, criminal activity is NEVER expunged from your record. It is not like it was a traffic violation. If you have already been convicted and didn’t plea yourself into having an exception, you’ll be a DUI convict for life.

If a court is willing to look at it, it will be 5 to 10 years down the road, not one year.
