Duress is a complete defence to a criminal charge which means it leads to a verdict of ‘not guilty’ your actions were committed under duress if:
To rely on the defence, there must be evidence before the court that is capable of supporting a reasonable inference you acted under duress.

If it is unable to do so, you are entitled to an acquittal.
