Chapter 355 of the Kentucky Code has a severability clause: http://www.lrc.ky.gov/statutes/chapter.aspx?id=39966

Chapter 402 (Marriage) does not: http://www.lrc.ky.gov/statutes/chapter.aspx?id=39205

[P-Marlowe]

Even if there were a severability clause the Supreme Court effectively overturned the entire Kentucky Marriage system because Kentucky currently has no definition of Marriage.

402.005 Definition of marriage.

As used and recognized in the law of the Commonwealth, "marriage" refers only to the civil status, condition, or relation of one (1) man and one (1) woman united in law for life, for the discharge to each other and the community of the duties legally incumbent upon those whose association is founded on the distinction of sex.

Effective: July 15, 1998

History: Created 1998 Ky. Acts ch. 258, sec. 4, effective July 15, 1998.

KENTUCKY CANNOT ISSUE ANY MARRIAGE LICENSES UNLESS AND UNTIL THEY COME UP WITH A DEFINITION OF MARRIAGE.

SECTION 402.005 NO LONGER EXISTS.

SINCE THERE IS NOW NO DEFINITION OF THE TERM "MARRIAGE" THERE IS NO ABILITY OF ANYONE IN KENTUCKY TO ISSUE A "MARRIAGE" LICENSE.
