What is the Terasoff Act?
if you are referring to the landmark Tarasoff case, this is what your answer would be. The Tarasoff Act basically mandates that mental health professionals have a legal duty to protect third parties from the actions of their [professionals'] clients. The professional has a duty to take the necessary steps in warning the intended victim(s), police, and all other reasonably necessary people of the imminent and potential dangers that are posed by the client. Even though the ethical code of confidentiality is breached, the reason for the breach far outweighs and, therefore, justifies the breach.

What is the law behind Tarasoff vs Board of Regents of the university of California?
The Case of Tatiana Tarasoff vs California Board of Regents October 27, 1969 Tatiana Tarasoff was killed by Prosenjit Poddar a foreign exchange student at the University of California at Berkley. Paddar had pursued a romantic relationship with Tarasoff, who repeatedly rejected his advances Paddar sought treatment at the schools health facility and was assigned to a clinical psychologist who diagnosed him with paranoid schizophrenia. Paddar spoke about his anger and rage at Tarasoff and explained his plans to kill her. The psychologist found his threats to be substantiated and could (through deduction) identify the potential victim. He consulted two psychiatrists who also examined Poddar and concurred with the finding. They initiated civil commitment procedures, however the chief of psychiatry at the Cowell Memorial Hospital countermanded the findings and instructed staff to release Poddar. His therapist then made a report to campus police. The police issued a "pick up" order for Paddar. He was found and questioned. The police, determined that he was not a risk and let him go after he agreed to stay away from Tarasoff. Poddar discontinued his therapy. Two months later, Poddar committed the murder of Tatiana Tarasoff after she rejected him once more. Tarasoff's parents sued the university, the therapist, and the police for negligence. The case went to the California Supreme Court who found that the defendents were negligent in not notifying Tarasoff that she had been the subject of a homicidal threat (although Poddar never specifically mentioned her by name). Specifically, the court ruled that the therapist is liable if (1) they should have known about the dangerousness based on accepted professional standards of conduct,and (2) they failed to exercise reasonable care in warning the potential victim. Tarasoff's parents won a civil award of $600,000 (3 million + in 2000 dollars). One half of the settlement was paid by the State of California (School and Police) and the other half was paid by the psychologist (out of pocket) The findings sparked laws in virtually every state to change and include statutory requirements for notification and duty to warn those against whom threats have been made. The debate between rules of confidentiality and privilege and duty to warn has existed ever since.
