1. “In staying enforcement of the municipal court judgment, the district court was acting pursuant to its powers under 11 U.S.C. § 105 (a). Section 105(a) authorizes the district court to “issue any order, process, or judgment that is necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of [Title 11].” Walls v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 276 F.3d 502 , 506 (9th Cir.2002). Section 105(a) "contemplates injunctive relief in precisely those instances where parties are pursuing actions pending in other courts that threaten-the integrity of a bankrupt's estate.” In re Baptist Med. Ctr. of N.Y., 80 B.R. 637 , 641 (Bankr.E.D.N.Y.1987) (citations and internal quotation marks omitted).”

2. “Because the stay under § 362 is “automatic” and “self-executing” only upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition, no authority exists for “reinstating” an automatic stay that has been lifted. We have expressly recognized that “the bankruptcy automatic stay is differentiated from a bankruptcy court-ordered injunction, which issues under 11 U.S.C. § 105 .” Andreiu v. Reno, 223 F.3d 1111 , 1121 n. 4 (9th Cir.2000).”
