Unfortunately you can't get this expunged or sealed. A case is not eligible for sealing or expunction if it was adjudicated guilty.You can always try to obtain a pardon or clemency from the governor's office but that is very rare. Likewise, if there is a legal basis you can try to vacate your sentence with the original court.
