I deleted the Client computer on DHCP

By mistake, I deleted the client computer name from the Address Lease on the
DHCP. I thougtht this would allow the client computer name to get a new IP
address. The client computer name is still showing under the Active
Directory---Computer---Users.

Now, the issue is... When I try to log the client computer to the domain, it
does not get any IP Adress? The IP Address that gets assigned has nothing
to do with the DHCP scope. I can not make the client computer join the
Domain.

How can solve this problem? Do I need to client computer re-join the
Domain? Do I need to delete the client computer from the Active Directory?

Any suggestions or ideas is greatly appreciated....

What IP is getting assigned?

Have you tried at a cmd prompt:

ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

After you do that, does it get a new IP?
