Heading: failure to serve defendant wiggins

Text: On one point, however, we cannot affirm the district court’s decision. The court’s dismissal of the claim against all Defendants, including Defendant Wiggins, was with prejudice. But Wiggins was not served with process. Because Wiggins was never served, the court lacked personal jurisdiction over him. See Omni Capital Int’l v. Rudolf Wolff & Co., Ltd., 484 U.S. 97, 104 (1987). Accordingly, any dismissal of the claim against him must be without prejudice. See Brereton v. Bountiful City Corp., 434 F.3d 1213, 1216, 1218 (10th Cir. 2006).
