To better frame our analysis, we consider the two parts of the district court’s injunction separately. The first part of the injunction (Sections V.A and V.B of the district court’s order) bars Defendants from increasing the individual Plaintiffs’ rent unless Defendants accept enhanced vouchers, and further bars Defendants from evicting tenants so long as the Plaintiff tenants continue to pay their out-of-pocket Section 8 contribution. This portion of the district court’s injunction is “prohibitory” in nature, since it “prohibits a party from taking action and preserves the status quo pending a determination of the action on the merits.” Marlyn Nutraceuticals, Inc. v. Mucos Pharma GmbH & Co., 571 F.3d 873, 878 (9th Cir.2009) (alteration and internal quotation marks omitted). The second part of the injunction (section V.C of the district court’s order) requires Defendants to “take all steps necessary to enter into and execute housing assistance payment contracts with the Oakland Housing Authority for the acceptance of tenant based vouchers.” This part of the injunction is “mandatory” in nature, since it “orders a responsible party to take action.” Id. at 879 (internal quotation marks omitted). 1. Prohibitory Injunction
