Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York
I plead guilty to NYS 260.10 in 2005. I was given drug and alcohol counceling and the Dr. sent a letter to the judge that he recommends that I not have to see him again. This was my only conviction before or since. Can I get my record expunged or sealed? If so, how?

there is no provision for expungment in new york. The only way is to seek a pardon from the governor

Unfortunately New York State does not allow for the expungement of criminal convictions. You may, however, wish to ask the court for a certificate of relief from civil disabilities which will remove certain barries to employment opportunities.
