Rule 41 shall govern practice under this chapter regarding dismissal of actions, except that all dismissals shall be without prejudice unless the court specifically indicates that a dismissal is with prejudice and precludes further litigation of the same issue. Any new action addressing issues similar to a dismissed action shall be subject to appropriate counterclaims and defenses.
