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).

Is a dismissal of judgment different that a vacated judgment?
No. A "vacated" judgment means that the court considers that the judgment never took place - is vacated - is rendered null and void. A "dismissed" judgment can be done two ways - "with prejudice" and "without prejudice." "Dismissed WITH prejudice" means that even if the facts presented are true the case is over and cannot be re-tried. "WITHOUT prejudice" means the same, EXCEPT, that the charges CAN be re-filed and the case re-tried.

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.
How do you get prejudice?
By passing judgment without knowledge of what your judging. But then again who are we to pass judgment?
I had a misdemeanor case in which I plead guilty reopened in Mich with both the convicting judge prosecuting attrny judge changed the judgment to not guilty case dismissed is this still a conviction?
No. Once it is overturned and dismissed, it ceases being a conviction. You might need to have some paperwork cleaned up to reflect that.When it is overturned and then dismissed it ceases being a conviction.If the case was dismissed with prejudice, it may not be over. If the case was dismissed without prejudice, you are a free person with that conviction.Point of advice, unless you are fully prepared to do the time and are happy with the potential sentence, never submit a guilty plea...no matter how guilty you are. By doing so, you are voluntarily giving up your civil rights, and you generally have little recourse.
