I do not agree that there is a 6 month waiting time. We have cases that are dismissed and re-filed all the time without any waiting time. We only see a 6 month limitation if someone is suspected of abusing the system, such as filing with suspected false information, or repeated filings to avoid foreclosure or creditors and then never carrying through with the case, such as not appearing for the hearings. Almost always you can refile at least once, but you should pay attention to the "technicality", find out what the problem was, and avoid that the next time.
