N.Y. Real Property Tax Law § 1172: Severability of provisions

§ 1172. Severability of provisions. The powers granted and the duties

imposed by this article and the applicability thereof to any persons,

tax districts or circumstances shall be construed to be independent and

severable and if any one or more sections, clauses, sentences or parts

of this article, or the applicability thereof to any persons, tax

districts or circumstances shall be adjudged unconstitutional or

invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the

remaining provisions thereof or the applicability thereof to other

persons, tax districts or circumstances, but shall be confined in its

operation to the specific provisions so held unconstitutional and

invalid and to the persons, tax districts and circumstances affected

thereby.
