When a court dismisses a case, it means that the legal proceedings are stopped and the case is closed without a decision on the merits. This can happen for various reasons, such as lack of evidence, procedural errors, or settlement between the parties.

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.
