You need to ask the court to issue a dismissal order, with prejudice. If the case is dismissed without an order at all, the other side can ask that the case be reinstated, with prejudice means that they filed the case for the purposes of harassment and cannot refile it again for any reason. Caveat; you could still ask that the case be dismissed for failure to timely prosecute the case and that the case is brought solely for the purposes of harassment to injure your credit, plus the fact that the case has already been tried and dismissed.

What happens after an appeal is dismissed as moot?
If an appeal is dismissed it can be reinstated if the dismissal was without prejudice to reinstating it. This is common with procedural dismissals. If it is dismissed because the court considered the merits of the appeal and felt the lower court acted correctly then it cannot be reinstated. However, if the appeal was dismissed on its merits, the dismissal may be appealed to the next higher court in that particular court system if there is one. Regardless of the type of dismissal, the end result is that the ruling of the lower court will stand unless the appeal is reinstated and the court reverses the lower court.
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.
