The party who brings the case may dismiss the case at anytime, generally, and sometimes with stipulations, agreements. That would generally be considered a voluntary dismissal, i.e. dismissal for their own reasons, likely. On the other hand the opposing party may ask the court, by motion, too dismiss the case brought against them; and the court may grant that motion to dismiss, and dismiss the case. The involuntary dismissal may occur because, for example, a party fails to comply with rule requirement or requirements in his/her "pleadings."
