Does the Superior Court have jurisdiction to grant an injunction to prevent the parties from breaching a contractual obligation?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Gottlieb v. Superior Court In and For Los Angeles County, 168 Cal.App.2d 309, 335 P.2d 714 (Cal. App. 1959):

There is still a further reason why the court was without jurisdiction in this matter. The injunction granted [168 Cal.App.2d 314] was, by its terms, one which enjoined the parties from the violation of a contractual obligation and the character of that obligation as a contractual obligation was not changed by its being merged into the decree. Plumer v. Superior Court, 50 Cal.2d 631, at page 637, 328 P.2d 193, at page 196.
