What should occur in a just system and what will occur in our unperfect one are two different matters. They will argue it was your fault in not checking with the court to see it was dismissed [if it was dismissed, why would you have to pay any fees except those for failing an opposition?], the court will say it is an administrative act, everyone will blame everyone else, and no one will pay you. Check with your supervisor to see if you can be put at the top of the list for any overtime hours to make up for the loss in pay.
