Since Judge Wright dismissed the Jones case for failure to make any plausible case that she had sustained damages, a determination that Clinton had comitted perjury in his Lewinsky testimony would have no logical effect. Never mind that Clinton's Lewinsky testimony was almost certainly not material to the case as a whole. It unquestionably had nothing whatsoever to do with the issue of whether Jones had suffered damages.

Put differently, if Clinton in the Jones deposition had fully admitted, in all detail, Starr's version of the details of his relationship with Lewinsky, that wouldn't have helped Jones establish damages in her case one iota.

I thought you were a lawyer?
