Read the following excerpt from a US court opinion:
```
breadth of the consent decree as follows: [By THE COURT:] Well, I've reviewed the matter and the case started out as a residence case, and I know that the consent decree has some additional broad language in it. But it started out as a residence case. And now under the mantle, let us say, of a contempt proceeding, it has shifted ground, and it's becoming a testing and selection case. App. I at 5. Even if the case did initially center on the residency requirement, the proper focus must be on the language contained within the consent decree itself. A judicially approved consent decree, like a settlement agreement, is essentially a contract for purposes of construction. Local No. 93, Int'l Ass'n of Firefighters v. City of Cleveland, 478 U.S. 501, 519, 106 S.Ct. 3063, 3078, 92 L.Ed.2d 405 ; Kasper v. Board of Election Comm'rs, 814 F.2d
