Blackmail falls under the heading of Extortion, and it is a felony. Punishment can depend on the state, the severity of the crime, and any mitigating factors. Possible punishments include prison, fines, probation and restitution for the victims. If Extortion is charged under federal law, the penalty can run between a prison term that is less than twenty years and/or full restitution.
The sentencing guidelines for extortion depend on the type of extortion committed. Charges can carry fines or jail sentences based on severity.

Extortion in business is obtaining money, goods or services from a person through coercion. This is actually regarded as a criminal offence.
Robbery differs from extortion in that the property is taken against the will and without the consent of the victim, unlike extortion, where the victim consents, although unwillingly, to surrender money or property. Another distinguishing factor is that the nature of the threat for robbery is limited to immediate physical harm to the victim or his or her home. Extortion, on the other hand, encompasses a greater variety of threats
"Extortion" IS the criminal charge.-------------------------------------------------------------------------Im not sure what you're asking here. As the person above me said, Extortion is the charge. Are you asking what the penalty is? Or are you asking what extortion is defined as? Extortion is forcing someone using threats, physical abuse, blackmail etc. to provide money, goods, services, etc. to you. Think of old school Mafia movies; the gangster threatens and assaults a shopkeeper until they agree to kick up a vig (money). Penalties for extortion vary dramatically from state to state so if that is what you are asking you will need to provide the state you would like information on.
