HILL, Circuit Judge:

This appeal involves the continued enforcement by the district court of an injunction which prevents the government from maintaining exclusion proceedings against unrepresented Haitian aliens and pursuant to which a system for the provision of counsel to those aliens has been established. We hold that the continued enforcement of this injunction violates this court's previous mandate and must be terminated.
