April Ledford appeals the district courts order dismissing her complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and conclude that the district court correctly found that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over Ledfords complaint. However, as the dismissal was based on the lack of subject matter jurisdiction, it “must be one without prejudice, because a court that lacks jurisdiction has no power to adjudicate and dispose of a claim on the merits.” S. Walk at Broadlands Homeowners Assn, Inc. v. OpenBand at Broadlands, LLC, 713 F.3d 175, 185 (4th Cir. 2013). Accordingly, we affirm the district courts order dismissing Ledfords complaint, but we modify the judgment to reflect that Ledfords complaint is dismissed without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. 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.
