“and one or the other changes his or her mind, and communicates the revocation or change of mind of the consent, and the other partner continues the sexual intercourse by compulsion of the party who changes his or her mind, then it would be rape”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage““Under Maine law a person is guilty of gross sexual assault if that person engages in a sexual act with another person and that other person submits as a result of compulsion.” “A sexual act may be proved without allegation or proof of penetration. Compulsion means the use of physical force, threat to use physical force or combination thereof that makes a person unable to physically repel the actor. This legal definition of compulsion places no duty on the victim to resist the act.””
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. State v. Maizeroi“. . . [i]f the jury credited the defendant's story to the extent of his claim that the prosecutrix changed her mind in the middle of their consensual sexual intercourse, it could, under the court's instruction, have returned its guilty verdict only if it found as a fact that the defendant compelled the woman to submit to his continued intercourse with her for a period after she had revoked her original consent.”
