Only if the right to sue for the same cause of action is reserved before seeking dismissal of the suit/Writ Petition as not pressed, he/she can file a fresh Petition. In such cases, if the Writ Petition/suit/Original Petition had been dismissed as withdrawn, the Petitioner in such a case, loses his/her right to file a fresh Writ Petition on the same cause of action.
