It depends on why the suit was dismissed but you would probably be wasting your time and money resubmitting a lawsuit that the court had already determined was inactionable without making changes to the core of it to render it actionable.

The following can be gleaned from the wording supplied by the questioner: (1) One of the parties involved in a civil lawsuit filed a counter-claim against the other party. (2) the counterclaim was dismissed by the judge BUT the judge did not preclude the counter-claim from being re-worded or re-filed (i.e.: without prejudice). (3) The judge's reason was that, in their opinion, whatever matter the counter-claim raised was already addressed in the original suit (i.e.: moot).
How far can i go with a lawsuit against the city of Irving Texas and the state of Kentucky I was arrested on allegations of rape and sodomy Case dismissed but there was slander and discrimination?
If the criminal charges of rape and sodomy were subsequently dismissed (BUT, you don't say if it was dismissed WITH or WITHOUT prejudice!) I would say that you have no cause of action on the disposition of the criminal charges. However allegations of slander and discrimination are CIVIL chargesand are separate and apart from the criminal action. Contact a good civil attorney for advice.
What happens if a judge has ruled on a judgment dismissed without prejudice?
A "Dismissed without Prejudice" order means that the lawsuit is being dismissed by the court, but the case can be re-filed if the party chooses to re-file. This often happens when a lawsuit is filed but, for some reason, it is not pursued. Maybe a plaintiff becomes ill, or maybe a witness can't be located. The possibilities are endless. Rather than the case sitting in the court docket without there being any activity on it, the court dismisses it. On the other hand, a case that is "Dismissed WITH Prejudice" means, usually, that the claim is barred from being refiled.

Can a creditor lawsuit for debt be refiled at a later date if it was dismissed 'without prejudice'?
Yes, that's what 'without prejudice' means. When something is dismissed with prejudice, this is due to some kind of misconduct on the side of the party making the claim. They're then disallowed from refiling it. However if it's dismissed without prejudice, often due to a precedural error, it can be refiled.
