Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Dismissed case can you reistate?
I have a case that was dismissed for no reason. The case has really not gone anywhere due to no lawyer. Is it possible to get this case going again without having to refile? And how would I approach this? Case # 02C00845 Glendale court if you like to see summary.

A motion to set aside the dismissal can be made. Alternatively, if the case was dismissed without prejudie and the statute of limitations has not run, a new complaint can be filed. Please contact our office if you need further assistance.
Re: Dismissed case can you reistate?
I have reviewed the docket for your case. It appears that the court sustained defendant's second demurrer without leave to amend. That operates as a dismissal with prejudice of your case. It appears that you never filed an opposition to the demurrer. Unfortunately, it seems that you did not have very good legal advice during the pendency of the case. Based upon the docket, only, you may not ever be able to refile the case. Good luck to you.
