Coercion is the act of convincing or forcing someone to do something they do not wish to do. This is usually done with the use of psychological pressure, physical force or threats.

Coercion means threats of serious harm to or physical restraint against any person; or any scheme, plan, or pattern intended to cause a person to believe that failure to perform an act would result in serious harm to or physical restraint against any person; or the abuse or threatened abuse of law or the legal process (22 U.S.C. 7102).
