2024As this court expressly held in Flesner [citation], section 13-217 permits one, and only one, refiling of a claim.” Id. at 165 . ¶ 10 Thus, because the Wares’ initial action was “dismissed by a United States District Court for lack of jurisdiction” (see 735 ILCS 5/13-217 (West 2022)), thereby invoking the savings provision of section 13-217, and because the instant case is the second time that the Wares have refiled their claims against Best Buy, the present action is barred by the single-refiling rule of section 13-217.

2017Id. ¶ 28 Returning to the case law cited by the parties, we observe that this situation is distinguishable from English because the court there held that a defendant is entitled to the automatic reinstatement of a voluntarily withdrawn postconviction petition within one year after its withdrawal, whereas in this case defendant sought to reinstate his petition well after one year. - 11 - 2017 IL App (2d) 141251 Therefore, as in Macri, we need not decide whether we agree with English’s position on automatic reinstatement.
