What really? Where do you live? Here in Germany you can get in legal trouble when you see someone in an urgent need for help and you not help.

There is actual law about this. Section 323c of the German Criminal Code https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/englisch_stgb/englisch_stgb.html#p3123

Would failing to deliver CPR be considered a violation of this law?

I guess the correct answer to this is "it depends"...

If the situation is to stressful for you to handle than most probably not. In reality this would be think a court would need to decide on.
