What do you mean by post procedure of dismissal?
If the complaint has been dismissed he cannot do anything about it.
The complaint under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act (NI Act) can be dismissed for non-prosecution, meaning if the complainant fails to appear or prosecute the case, the court can dismiss it but this discretion must be exercised judiciously and fairly by the court.
However the complainant can appeal against the dismissal order, but the appeal may be allowed only if the appellant's non-appearance is justified and no prejudice would be caused to the respondent.
