Can a dismissed with prejudice case be appealed?
If the judge dismissed it with prejudice, it doesn't necessarily mean that you "won." All that disposition means is that the JUDGE didn't believe the case against you was grounded in law.Whether the case was civil or criminal, the EXACT same charge could not be brought against you again at the level of original jurisdiction, however, if the Plaintiff (or Prosecutors Office) appealed the judge's decision to the appelate level, the appelate court could conceivably overrule the original judge's dismissal which would have the effect of re-activating the case. If the appelate court refused to hear the appeal, or it affirmed the judge's decision THEN the case would truly 'go away.'
What is Dismiss without Prejudice?
In short it means that the case was dismissed inconclusively. There may have been missing evidence or procedural requirements not met, and therefore the case could potentially be brought before the court again by the parties involved. It is an order issued by a judge actually dismissing the charges that were brought in the case - usually for some legal insufficiency, or lack of evidence, in the case itself. Dismissal WITHOUT Prejudice means that the charges MAY be re-instituted and brought before court again AFTER the legal insufficiency is cured. It is usually a term used in the context of case being dismissed. The significance of it is that the Plaintiff/Prosecution retains the right to re-file the lawsuit a second time. A case can be dismissed without prejudice by the judge (such as, if he or she grants a motion to dismiss filed by the defendant--but in such a case, the plaintiff/prosecution usually will be given the right amend the complaint (restate the allegations of the lawsuit), or it can be voluntarily dismissed altogether by the plaintiff/prosecutor. In many jurisdictions, a second voluntary dismissal by a plaintiff will preclude any subsequent refiling of the cause of action, but that is governed by local law.
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.

A court dismissal means what?
A divorce case is a law suit, where one spouse sues the other for divorce. If the case is dismissed, the divorce is not granted, and the parties continue to be married as they were prior to the divorce.

What does order granting plaintiffs notice for nonsuit mean?
A nonsuit is generally "without prejudice," and the phrase most often used is "nonsuit without prejudice." The nonsuit is usually initiated by the complaining party (plaintiff) and stops all legal action and removed the cause from the courts docket. In many states the nonsuit action is an absolute right of the plaintiff, up to a certain point in a legal action or cause. Nonsuits are most often filed when the plaintiff feels he may lose his case, and he wants to preserve his right to bring the cause again, perhaps under more favorable circumstances. A judge can also impose a nonsuit if the court determines the suit is improperly brought. A companion term to nonsuit is a "dismissal", usually combined with the term "with prejudice." A "dismissal with prejudice" also stops all legal action associated with the cause, but the cause may not be brought again. The terms "nonsuit" and "dismissal" are often considered equivalent terms, but the common legal usage is "nonsuit without prejudice," dismissal with prejudice." The former allowing the cause to be brought again, and the latter barring the cause from being brought again.
