Legal Question in DUI Law in California

A relative of mine had a 1st dui conviction in Sacremento in 1997. He paid all the fines, but did not serve any community service. Never had another dui. He moved to Illinois a couple of years later, and is now terrified to get a driver's license. What should he do and would he face jail if he tried to get a license? He has had no other legal problems of any sort has quit drinking altogether, earned his BA and Masters degrees in Illinois.
