He's filed this motion to dismiss his LOLsuit against Patrick Grady and others.

UPDATE—IANAL, so this isn't legal advice, but murum aries attigit.

As requested in his motion, the case was dismissed with prejudice. Dismissal with prejudice is a finding on the merits in favor of the opposing parti(ies). In effect, Bill Schmalfeldt admitted that he was not defamed by his cousin Roy who called Bill a rapist.

The Gentle Reader should take note that does not necessarily mean the Bill Schmalfeldt is in fact a rapist. Under the elements of defamation, Schmalfeldt could might have a reputation that is so bad that calling him a rapist can tarnish it any further.
