1Opinion of the Court
HARRIS, Judge:
¶1 Brett Clark Cochran pled guilty to driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI), which in his case amounted to a third-degree felony because he had two other similar recent convictions. He was sentenced to a short jail term and three years on probation. After completing his sentence, including compliance with the terms and conditions of probation, he asked the district court to reduce his conviction from a felony to a misdemeanor, pursuant to Utah Code section 76-3-402(2). The district court declined to do so, and Cochran now appeals that decision. We affirm.
