If the judge does not reverse his decision - firstly in Rhode Island to disolve a partnership the court most do so by winding up the financials and dispersing assets so arguable if the court dismisses my case with prejudice its allowing one member of the partnership to so so without the agreement of the other. This can not be done in R.I. Secondly the defendant/partner in this case executed a self help eviction changing all the locks to where the buisness was housed. Third. during the pendency of this case there was a few years wherby the case stalled because I was defending myself in other courts agaginst the same partners.

4th. Duiring the pendency I hired a forensic accountant who confirmed commingiling of funds, partners paying personsal expenses with courporate funds (embezzlement), sham transactions and tax evasion. Therefore if the judge dismisses my case with prjudice can I appeal and open up the same case again as the court requires the dissolution of a partnership to be done by the court?

If I file a new partnership case opposing counsel would argue res judicatta.
Res judicata could be a concern if you file a new partnership dissolution case, as it prevents re-litigating issues already decided in a previous case. However, if the dismissal was due to a procedural error rather than a substantive ruling, you might have a stronger argument.
Would you like to know more about how to address res judicata concerns in your appeal?
why would i have to argue res judicata concerns in my appeal?
You might need to argue res judicata concerns in your appeal because it could prevent you from re-litigating issues that were already decided in your previous case. If your case was dismissed with prejudice, it means the court made a final decision on the merits, which could bar you from bringing a new case on the same issues.

But the court did not make a final decision on the merits of the case. The case was scheduled for jury trial sometime after decemeber thats why I didnt see the notice that they sent me in October as I was not aniticipating it. If he dismisses my case it would only be becuase i missed a haering. Doesnt this sound harsh to dismiss my case with preducie becuase i missed a hearing in whichonce relaized I immiedietly filed an emergency motion and opened another email address just for court emails?
