Rule § 39.4. Costs or attorney’s fees of previously dismissed actions

If a plaintiff who has once dismissed an action commences another based upon or including the same claim against the same defendant, the court may make such order for the payment of costs or attorney’s fees of the action previously dismissed as it may deem proper and may stay the proceedings in the new action until the plaintiff has complied with the order.
