If the dismissal happened very recently, file a motion with the court explaining why you missed the court date and ask that the case be reopened and a new trial date be issued.  If it has been a while since the case was dismissed, You will need to review the court file to determine what type of dismissal was entered by the judge.  If without prejudice, than re-file the lawsuit.  Good luck with this matter.
