Coercion
n.
The
application
to
another
of
either
physical
or
moral
force
.
When
the
force
is
physical
,
and
cannot
be
resisted
,
then
the
act
produced
by it is a
nullity
, so
far
as
concerns
the
party
coerced
.
When
the
force
is
moral
,
then
the
act
,
though
voidable
, is
imputable
to
the
party
doing
it,
unless
he be so
paralyzed
by
terror
as to
act
convulsively
. At
the
same
time
coercion
is
not
negatived
by
the
fact
of
submission
under
force
. "
Coactus
volui
" (I
consented
under
compulsion

the
condition
of
mind

,
when

is
volition
forced
by
coercion
,
annuls
the
result
of
such
coercion
.
