Quoting%20commentary for Ketubot 3:6
יְתוֹמָה שֶׁנִּתְאָרְסָה וְנִתְגָּרְשָׁה, רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר אוֹמֵר, הַמְפַתֶּה פָטוּר, וְהָאוֹנֵס חַיָּב:
An orphan who was betrothed and divorced — R. Eliezer says: One who seduces her is exempt (from knass) and one who forces her is liable. [For since she is an orphan and her knass belongs to her, she waives it, for she cohabited with him consentingly and he is exempt. And not an orphan alone, but any maiden who was betrothed and divorced — one who forces her is liable, and one who seduces her is exempt, just as in the instance of an orphan, for her knass belongs to her, as R. Akiva says above, and this is the halachah.]
