QUESTION
Can I get DUI convictions expunged if I have more than one?
Asked on Jan 17th, 2013 on DUI/DWI - California
More details to this question:
I got my first DUi in 1995 and was going to look into expunging it but before I did I got a second one last year, 2012. Is it possible to get 2 expunged? Do I have to wait a certain amount of time after to do it?

There is no expungment statute in New York, the convictions will remain on your record forever. You can get a Certificate of Relief from Disabilities to help you to get a job, license to do a job, or to get government benefits.

You cannot expunge cases if you were found guilty. Only if you were found not guilty or the cases were dismissed. Otherwise, they will remain on your record. Be aware if you were convicted on both of those cases, the next one will be a felony.

No. First, a DUI conviction with an adjudication of guilt cannot be expunged or sealed. Second, only one case can be sealed or expunged. You can only seal or expunge more than one crime if they occurred during the same criminal episode, and 2 DUI's surely did not.

You can, but not yet. You need to wait until you are done with probation.

Yes, you can get two DUI's expunged from your record. First you must be off of probation before a court will even consider it and it must be done at the court where the conviction took place.
