The case of Rex v. Rex (39 Ohio App. 295, 177 N.E. 527) sets forth the principle that for coitus between separated husband and wife to be condonation [of previous adultery], it must be voluntary and not induced by fear, intimidation or secured by trickery.

Is it possible to rape one's own wife? Can one be divorced in some states but
not in others? Is adultery always a grounds for divorce? Are married
couples really free in their own beds?
So complex are our laws governing sex and marriage, that too often such
questions can only be answered by a court of law; and a decision in one
state can be negated by the courts in another. Accordingly, a large portion
of our population could be prosecuted and convicted by obscure laws that no
longer fit our twentieth-century manners and mores.
Here is a comprehensive study of our laws as they relate to sex, with
illuminating case histories which show the pitfalls that can trap the
unenlightened.
