If a case is dismissed means the Judge threw the case out of court. If a juror is dismissed, the juror is told to go home and another juror replaces him. The disposition is the final outcome. That is when the judge is through with the case. If it is a civil case, one side either has to pay the other side or not. If it is a criminal case, one person goes to jail or walks free. Anyway, everyone leaves the court room.

Can you reverse a civil case before it goes to court?

You cannot "reverse" a case before it goes to court, because there is nothing yet to reverse. You probably mean can you get a case dismissed before it goes to court. The answer is Yes and that depends on the facts of the case and the law involved. It can be dismissed on substantive or procedural grounds. Dismissal on substantive grounds is usually done by summary judgment. This can occur if a court finds that under the law involved, even if the plaintiff proves his case, he still is not entitled to a judgment against the defendant. Dismissal on procedural grounds can occur when one or another party fails to do something the court rules require that party do, like providing discovery on time. A dismissal on substantive reasons acts like a final adjudication. The action may be appealed but not reinstated. An action dismissed on procedural grounds can be reinstated if the failure is corrected unless a statute of limitations prevents it.

If a de novo appeal of a misdemeanor assault charge from municipal court to county court at law is dismissed would double jeopardy prevent a new felony assault charge from being filed?

IF I UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION CORRECTLY:A 'de novo" appeal was made to nullify the original municipal court verdict and move the case from municipal court to county court.A de novo hearing signifies that, in the eyes of the law, the initial hearing (in municipal court), never occurred and it is being heard in county court as if it were a 'new' case.If the case was then dismissed by the county court judge, the reason for the dismissal would have to be known as well as under what conditions it was dismissed.BUT - if the misdemeanor assault case was dismissed WITHOUT prejudice, it COULD be re-filed as a felony without creating double jeaopordy.
