Default Rear Calipers

I am going to be changing the rear discs and pads this week on a 2004 Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6....Today..the Caliper appears to be locking up..the park brake is not on...it happens intermittently...Do you think I need a new Caliper, (Driver's Side)...or can they be adjusted...The brake pad came off...wore down.....Thank you for your help

Just never heard of a pad falling out of a caliper even if worn down to the backing plate. Don't drive or even move the car till this is fixed BTW.
