SEC. 1.178. SEVERABILITY.

§ 1.178

In plain language

If any provision of this chapter or its application to a specific person or situation is found invalid, the rest of the chapter remains in effect and applies to other persons and situations.

If a court decides that one part of this chapter is illegal or doesn't work, that doesn't cancel the whole chapter. The rest of the rules still apply to everyone else. It's a standard legal rule that keeps a law functioning even if one piece of it has a problem.
