Undue influence is a situation in which one person takes advantage of another person's mental, emotional, or physical weakness and unduly persuades that person to enter into a contract. It involves a relationship of trust or confidence between the parties, and the stronger party uses that relationship to their advantage by exerting pressure or influence over the weaker party. It is different from duress which involves physical threats or coercion and fraud which involves intentional misrepresentation of material facts. Scienter refers to the knowledge or intent to deceive or defraud.
