Severability

9 GCA § 1.12 — under Preliminary Provisions; Definitions.

9 GCA § 1.12

If any provisions of this Code or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision or application of this Code which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Code are severable. SOURCE: GC § 19. COMMENT: While there is no severability clause in the Guam Penal Code, it has been regarded as severable. Thus, the practice, if not the law, has been continued.
