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
