USCA4 Appeal: 22-1989         Doc: 19      Filed: 12/19/2023     Pg: 2 of 2

        PER CURIAM:

               Anthony Braxton appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation

        of the magistrate judge and dismissing his complaint for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction

        under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h)(3). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

        Accordingly, we deny Braxton’s pending motions and affirm the district court’s order, see

        Braxton v. Boggess, No. 2:22-cv-00246 (S.D.W. Va. Aug. 23, 2022; Aug. 11, 2022), but

        we modify the dismissal to be without prejudice, see Ali v. Hogan, 26 F.4th 587, 600 (4th

        Cir. 2022). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

        adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the

        decisional process.

                                                                      AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED

                                                     2
