It's not clear from your question, but it seems like you had a criminal charge pending for failure to have insurance, and the case was dismissed because the State did not press the charges in a timely manner. If that's what happened, then the case is over and you are not liable for penalty. But hard to tell from your question if that's it.

Your question is worded in too confusing a way for us to know. A dismissal usually ends a case, but your question is too unclear to answer for sure. So the safe answer is have a lawyer look at your paperwork.
