retraxit

retraxit (ri-trak-sit). [Latin “he has withdrawn”] A plaintiff’s voluntary withdrawal of a lawsuit in court so that the plaintiff forever forfeits the right of action. • In modern practice, retraxit is called voluntary dismissal with prejudice. A dismissal without prejudice does not operate as a retraxit. See judgment of retraxit under JUDGMENT.
