§ 447. Separability clause. If any part or provision of this article
or the application thereof to any person or circumstances be adjudged
invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, such judgment shall be
confined in its operation to the part, provision or application directly
involved in the controversy in which such judgment shall have been
rendered and shall not affect or impair the validity of the remainder of
this article or the application thereof to other persons or
circumstances and the legislature hereby declares that it would have
enacted this article or the remainder thereof had the invalidity of such
provision or application thereof been apparent.
