Petitioners and appellants Peter Segó and Gisele Legrand (appellants) appeal from an order which denied their petition for writ of mandate pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 1085. Appellants are the owners of an eight-unit apartment building in Santa Monica, California. They contend (1) the trial court committed prejudicial abuse of discretion by refusing to enforce the duty of respondent Santa Monica Rent Control Board (the Board) to issue a certificate of permissible rent levels required by the Petris Act (Civ. Code, § 1947.8, subd. (c)); (2) it was reversible error to uphold the Board’s requirement that appellants sign a document under penalty of perjury alleging compliance with various laws as a condition of receiving a rent certification; and (3) the trial court committed reversible error by incorrectly interpreting Minelian v. Manzella (1989) 215 Cal.App.3d 457 [263 Cal.Rptr. 597].
