Re: Procedre
Its kind of hard to answer your question without know what type of case it is and what transpired on the case. I am assuming its some sort of a civil case since you mentioned, "counter claim." There are a number of ways that a judge can dismiss a civil case. One of the most common is called a Summary Judgment.
