Coercion \Co*er"cion\, n. [L. coercio, fr. coercere. See
   {Coerce}.]
   1. The act or process of coercing.

   2. (Law) 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) is the condition of mind
      which, when there is volition forced by coercion, annuls
      the result of such coercion. --Wharton.
