Abstract:
A topic of discussion among psychiatrists and therapists in North Carolina has been potential liability for injuries to other persons caused by violent patients under their care. Litigation dealing with this liability is based on the law of negligence. Psychotherapists have the duty to act when they believe the patient is dangerous to a readily identifiable victim.
