Will a court record entry about a speeding ticket that was dismissed hurt me in background checks?

Asked by sunrunner (120points) December 7th, 2010

Recently got a speeding ticket dismissed but I still have a court record entry; however the court records database doesn’t indicate whether it was dismissed, just that I was a defendant in a lawsuit. My questions are whether this will come up in background checks as a point against me, even though it was dismissed, and secondly, is there any way to remove this from the database?
