It can have several meanings depending on the context and the phraseology of the sentence in which it is contained. Give the fully worded example please.

"Dismissed with Prejudice" means the case is dismissed, forever.It can't be brought back to court. A case dismissed without prejudice means the opposite. It's not dismissed forever.If the case was dismissed without prejudice, a plaintiff could resurrect it, if, for instance, there was some new evidence. But, "with prejudice" means the court is closing the case permanently.

I am assuming the phrase is used in relation to a legal claim, in which case it means to withdraw the claim without the right to refile it at a later time. This is contrasted with "withdraw without prejudice" which would, obviously, mean that the right to refile the claim remains.
