If any provision of this title, or the application thereof to any person, corporation, association, organization, or circumstances, is for any reason held invalid, ineffective, or unconstitutional by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this title, or the application of such provision to other persons, corporations, associations, organizations, or circumstances, shall not be affected thereby, and the Legislature hereby declares the severability of the several sections and provisions of this title, and that it would have enacted this title without the invalid provisions or the invalid applications, as the case may be, had such invalidity been apparent.
