Definition of DISMISSED
A judgment of "Dismissed," without qualifying words indicating a right to take further proceedings, is presumed to be dismissed on the merits; Durant v. Essex Co., 7 Wall. 107, 19 L.Ed. 154. But a bill "dismissed" on motion of complainant does not bar a second suit; Ex parte Loung June, D.C.N.Y., 160 F. 251, 259.
