in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice
If a court strikes down part of this chapter, that ruling stays narrow. It won't affect the rest of the chapter. And it won't affect how the law applies to other people or situations.
This section is a standard "severability clause." If a court decides that any part of this chapter — or the way that part applies to a particular person or situation — is invalid, that decision does not disturb the rest of the chapter. The chapter's other provisions, and how they apply to other people or situations, remain fully in force.

If any provision of this chapter or the application there of to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances, and the remainder of this chapter shall not be affected thereby.
