I'll try to locate.

I was taught the same thing, 32 years ago. Then, at least, only a doctor or justice of the peace could declare someone to be dead.

If CPR is begun, it must be continued until such declaration is made, or CPR turned over to someone else.

If you stop CPR, then you have assumed the responsibility for letting this person die.
