    When, as here, “the challenge is made, not to the sufficiency of the jurisdictional allegations, but to the underlying facts supporting those allegations, a trial court may go beyond the allegations of the complaint and may consider evidence by affidavit, depositions or live testimony without converting the proceeding to one for summary judgment.” Mi Ah Kim v. United States, 609 F.Supp.2d 499, 504 (D.Md.2009) (quoting Adams v. Bain, 697 F.2d 1213, 1219 (4th Cir.1982)) (internal quotation marks omitted).

When the factual predicate of subject matter jurisdiction is challenged, "the presumption of truthfulness normally accorded a complaint's allegation does not apply, and the district court is entitled to decide disputed issues of fact with respect to . . . jurisdiction."
