Section 324. Separability  


Latest version.
  • If any clause, sentence, paragraph, or part of
      this article or the application thereof to any person or  circumstances,
      shall,  for any reason, be adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction
      to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the
      remainder of this article, and the application thereof to other  persons
      or  circumstances, but shall be confined in its operation to the clause,
      sentence,  paragraph,  or  part  thereof  directly   involved   in   the
      controversy  in  which such judgment shall have been rendered and to the
      person or circumstances involved.   It is  hereby  declared  to  be  the
      legislative  intent  that  this article would have been adopted had such
      invalid provisions not been included.
