It depends on who is running the background check.

It can be used against you if you are applying for city, county, state, federal jobs. Also if you are seeking a license from a state agency or the lottery commission. It should not be used reported to a private employers if it is found by a background checking company. Can't say definitely it will not be reported to a private employer.
