Which state uses Me. Rev. Stat. Ann. tit. 17, § 2512 (West Supp. 2016)?

The key idea is recognizing the state from the abbreviation in a statutory citation. Me. signals Maine, using the Maine Revised Statutes Annotated (Rev. Stat. Ann.). The rest—title, section, and the West Supp. edition—confirms it’s the Maine code formatting: title 17, section 2512, from Maine’s annotated statute compilation. The other states would use different abbreviations (Mississippi would be Miss., Montana would be Mont., Michigan would be Mich., etc.), so this citation points to Maine.
