What is Undue Influence?
The application of pressure and influence in an excessive and deceitful manner, and to exercise such dominion and control over a party to an agreement so that the influenced person has lost his own will and freedom and is acting at the behest of the influencing person. This can be asserted as a defense to a contract.
