To "retry" a case that has been dismissed with prejudice you would have to take an appeal of the action since it has already been tried and the dismissal is not a procedural dismissal.

Aside from a direct appeal, a party can ask the trial court to reconsider its decision, reverse its own order and reinstate the action.

A party can make a motion for a new trial.

A party can make a motion to be relieved from its effects for the various reasons set forth in the court rules as may apply. Common reasons for being relieved of an effect of an order are that the order was entered as a result of mistake, inadvertence, surprise, excusable neglect, fraud or any other reason that the interests of justice would require the order be set aside.

It will be stated in your final disposition of charges when the charges are dismissed - with or without prejudice.

If a case is dismissed with prejudice it is final and you cannot be retried (or re-arrested) on those charges - without prejudice is open to retrial in the future, if new evidence or witnesses are found or if new charges are brought, you may have to answer to it again.

Once a case has been dismissed without prejudice (usually as a result of inactivity), you have to start over. Either rewrite the petition, or use the same petition if it was good enough in the first place, and file it as if it were the first time. Pay the filing fee again.

You will want an attorney to handle this for you.
