Rule 70. Judgment for Specific Acts

    If a judgment directs a party to execute a conveyance of land or to deliver deeds or other documents or to perform any other specific act and the party fails to comply within the time specified, the court may after notice and opportunity to be heard, direct the act to be done by some other person appointed by the court and the act when so done has like effect as if done by the party, except that the appointee of the court shall have no authority to execute a conveyance of land located
outside the State of Maine. The court may also in proper cases adjudge the party in contempt.
