Dismissed - no. If you WIN a civil case, you can ask for costs. If you settle, you WILL ask for costs.

Added: If you wish to have your legal expenses paid by the losing side, that must be made part of the original suit so that it can be included in the decision. If you failed to do so, you wll have to file another, seperate, lawsuit to recover your expenses.
