§ 3642. Severability. If any clause, sentence, paragraph, or section

of this part shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to

be invalid and after exhaustion of all further judicial review, the

judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder thereof,

but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence,

in which the judgment shall have been rendered. The provisions of this

section shall apply to all sections of this part except those sections

which are expressly subject to separate severability provisions

contained hereinbefore in this part.
