Nothing can be done to seal nor expunge this record. To be eligible for nondisclosure, the person must have successfully completed an eligible deferred adjudication probation and waited the proper time limit. Assaults involving family violence are never subject to nondisclosure thus even if you had finished the probaiton successfully, the case would not be subject to being sealed. To be eligible for an expunction, the case must have been dismissed or the person found not guilty, and then other requirements also apply.
