DUI’s (felony or misdemeanor, it matters not) carry mandatory convictions and are therefore not subject to being sealed or expunged.
If you were convicted of DUI (felony or misdemeanor) then your only possibility at removing it is an award of executive clemency from the Governor.
In that regard you should know that clemency is a crap shoot; in fact, the odds are much better at craps then at clemency, but still, everything that you ever wanted to know about clemency – “the pardon process” – can be found at the following link : https://fpc.state.fl.us/Clemency.htm .
Sadly, at best an award of executive clemency is a veritable lottery drawing, and at worst it is truly a political process which is housed in a shroud of alleged fairness. In point of fact the odds of getting an award of a gubernatorial pardon are probably close to those for winning the lottery.
Still, I hope that I have been helpful in answering your question.
