If not, then the defendant does not have to answer to the charge anymore. When that happens the case is dismissed. It can be dismissed with or without prejudice. If it is dismissed without prejudice then the prosecution can refile charges somewhere down the line; if it is with prejudice they cannot reopen the case.

If the case re-appeared in the system after being "dismissed' - that means it must have been dismissed "WITHOUT PREJUDICE." This means that the original charge was somehow legally faulty and the judge dismissed it. WITHOUT prejudice means that the prosecutor, after correcting the deficiency, can re-file the charge. If the judge had dismissed it WITH prejudice, the case could not have been re-filed. About your being unable to reach your attorney.... I cannot comment on that.
