Not sure why you should need cron for your task, but this should run under it as well. Make sure it is run by bash! Replace your if construct with
Code:
if [ $(ls ${error_dir} | grep -c "\.err$") -eq 0 ]
  then  echo "No Error Files Found $dt" >>$log
  #           exit
  else  while   ((++CNT <= 5))
          do    echo "The below files have been resbumitted. " >> $log
                ls -ltr ${error_dir}*err >>$log
                /bin/java -cp "./TIPError.jar:./TIP31.jar:./TIP31msg_en_US.jar" ResubmitErrors -AuxprpawdRobin01 -P20904 >>$log
                [ $(ls ${error_dir} | grep -c "\.err$") -eq 0 ] && break
                sleep 5
          done
        if (( CNT == 5))
          then  mail "resumitted 5 times please notify vendor"
          else  echo "error corrected after $CNT retries"
        fi
        unset CNT
fi

Be aware that you need to check for the error files in every loop. Check the mail stuff and adapt to your system.
