43. DEFINITION OF “CONSENT”

“Consent” means: acting freely and voluntarily and without the influence of threats, force or duress

and with a willingness in fact for conduct to occur. It may be manifested by action or inaction and 

need not be communicated to the actor. If words or conduct are reasonably understood by another 

to be intended as consent, they constitute apparent consent and are as effective as consent in fact. 

Consent may be given expressly or by implication.
