No, a case cannot be dismissed at a summons. A summons is an official document issued by the court compelling a person to answer charges either in civil or criminal Court. The case for which the summons was issued could be dismissed at any time.

Plaintiffs do not charge. They file lawsuits. The plaintiff can always file, but if the case is dismissed with prejudice, a new filing cannot be litigated. If a case is dismissed with prejudice, it means res judicata applies, and a new filing would be dismissed because the issues have already been litigated. If the case is dismissed without prejudice, it means that it has been voluntarily dismissed or dismissed for some reason to allow the case to be refiled and re-litigated later.
