It depends on the nature of the Judge's dismissal. Likely the Judge dismissed the case "without prejudice". This means that the Plaintiff could re-open the case. Conversely, if the Judge dismissed "with prejudice" then the case is truly closed.
I recommend you consult with an attorney and bring all court paperwork in your possession. The attorney will be able to advise you of your options.
