With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". do not apply the doctrine of res judicata when the district court, without any specific qualifications or limiting instruction, utilizes its discretion to dismiss a complaint “without prejudice.” See Sunwest Bank v.

Juan Tafoya Land Corp., 1981-NMSC-080, ¶ 9, 96 N.M. 503, 632 P.2d 738 (noting that “a dismissal without prejudice contemplates the right to further proceedings”); Watkins v. Local Sch. Bd., 1975-NMSC-048, ¶¶ 8, 12, 88 N.M. 276, 540 P.2d 206 (<HOLDING>); Bankers Trust Co. of Cal. v. Baca,

B: holding that dismissal of a complaint for insufficient jurisdictional allegations should be without prejudice to amend
C: holding that a dismissal without prejudice is a final order only if no amendment to the complaint could cure the defects in the plaintiffs case
