§ 581-702 Severability

If a judge decides that one part of this law doesn't hold up legally, the rest of the law still stands. Only the specific piece that was struck down is affected. Everything else in the law keeps working exactly as it did before.

This kind of rule protects the law as a whole from being thrown out just because one piece of it has a problem. It means courts, agencies, and people affected by this law can still rely on the parts that remain valid, even if a challenge succeeds against a single section.
