      Without prejudice is a legal term.

      If something is denied without prejudice it means it was denied for some sort of procedural reason. As the underlying question of law hasn’t been ruled on, you are free to refile after correcting whatever error got it denied.

      If something is denied with prejudice, it cannot be refiled as the judge made a judgment on the legal claim and denied it on that basis.
