“Generally, an order dismissing a complaint without prejudice is not an appeal-able final order under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 when ‘the plaintiff could save his action by merely amending his complaint.’ However, ‘if the grounds of the dismissal make clear that no amendment could cure the defects in the plaintiffs case, the order dismissing the complaint is final in fact,’ and appellate jurisdiction exists.”
