What is a dismissal without prejudice in a foreclosure case?
A dismissal with prejudice in any civil case means that the case may not be refiled. A "Notice of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice" is typically filed by the Plaintiff when all issues have been resolved. Alternatively, a court may enter an order dismissing a case with prejudice if the Plaintiff engages in one or more actions that the court considers to be egregious. In those circumstances, the Plaintiff is normally warned several times before this serious a penalty is imposed, as it effectively cuts off the Plaintiff's right to judicial redress for the matter involved in the lawsuit.

Who decides if civil or small claims?
The plaintiff decides. However, there are two main exceptions: If it is over $5000, it must be tried in county court. And, if the Defendant wishes, he or she may remove the case from Small Claims court to county or district court where he or she may be represented by an attorney. Be careful, if you file in small claims court and it is removed, you will lose the right to trial by jury.
Can a court case be dismissed if the plaintiff does not show but his attorney does?
Not in a criminal case. In such cases the prosecuting attorney represents all of the people of the state and/or country and therefore represents the orignal plaintiff/victim. A civil trial is basically the same, if the plaintiff has legal representation. For example, a credit card company sues for debt owed. It is understood that the CC's legal counsel if the plaintiff by proxy and has the right to "prosecute" the case. If the civil suit has been brought by an individual plaintiff representing themselves, he or she must be present at the time of the trial or the case will be dismissed (generally w/o prejudice). Likewise, if legal counsel does not appear the case will be dismissed.
