it means the case is over
Added: There are SEVERAL types of dismissal.
Dismissal WITH prejudice which means the charges cannot be brought again.
Dismissal WITHOUT prejudice which means that the charges CAN be brought again.
There is also dismissal for want of prosecution, which means that the government failed to proceed against you in a timely manner or with insufficient information.
There is one last possibility that some people often refer to as a "dismissal" but actually isn't, and that is a Nolle Prossequi issued by the prosecutor in which, after examining the facts of the case he was presented with, declines to prosecute.
It's important to know which specific type of dismissal you received.
