It depends on whether it is dissmissed with or without prejudice.
If its dismissed with prejudice it cannot be brought up again and is legally binding
if it is dismissed without prejudice they can bring it up provided more factual evidence is presented.
She can re-file, but only the judge can make a legally binding decision
