Possibly. If there were no creditors complaining, (Motion for Relief from stay) then you should have no problems.
Note though that you may have issues getting the first bankruptcy dismissed.
Also, you may be better off letting the bankruptcy continue as a joint peition just to save the headache of refiling. Debts are discharged either way.

That depends on your situation. If you have filed but not received discharge of debt, then you may refile immediately.

If filed under chapter 13 and received discharge of debt, can refile after two years for same chapter 13. http://www.jacksonwhitelaw.com/what-we-do/get-help-filing-for-bankruptcy/ If the first bankruptcy, C. 7, was dismissed for cause, you have to wait 180 days before refiling.

Bankruptcy is a federal procedure and court. State laws have a bearing on some issues, especially exemptions, but otherwise the rules are the same.

You may not be entitled to a discharge, however, so check with a bankruptcy lawyer and do it right.

If your house goes back into foreclosure after you are making payments on a chapter 13 can you file pro se to stop foreclosure?
You are leaving out important information: when was the chapter 13 ended and why did it end? If the chapter 13 has not been closed or dismissed, the mortgage should not be in foreclosure unless you missed several post-petition payments and the mortgagee got relief from the automatic stay. You cannot have two bankruptcy filings open at the same time. If the chapter 13 was ended pursuant to a section of the bankruptcy code, you may be able to refile, but you may not have the benefit of the automatic stay. Consult a local bankruptcy lawyer.
