They are not statues. But statues usually authorizes these types of EOs and depending on the statue, consequences for flaunting them. In any case, case law supports them. And while I abhor the more draconian orders, they are not unconstitutional, as is often cried. SOCTUS, long time ago, says these types of orders are constitutional as long as there is a compelling public interest. Happens all the time, most notably during hurricane season.

Thanks @wink

I don't known whether to like or dislike this. Maybe one of our inhouse JAGs can confirm, but I've been seeing a lot online chatter about how unlawful these executive orders are and that they are not "laws". Anyone care to discuss the legalities of these EOs and their enforcement? Clearly in this case this woman is winding up in jail for not complying with this EO.
I think what's missed on these internet lawyers is the 'who is the authority on interpreting the legality of these matters...'

We can cry on the internet about [insert EO] being unconstitutional, but that's relatively inconsequential. If the state or federal legislative branches aren't challenging the EOs and bringing them to the judiciary branch, the implicit assumption is that it's kosher.

We learned about corrupt political bosses circa 1860-1920 in NY in 8th grade. Martin Scorsese made a movie out of it.

The more things change...

She was given an opportunity by the judge to apologize and say that she’d been selfish. She responded that her employees need to feed their children and she’s not selfish and not closing. The state AG, governor and lieutenant governor have since voiced support, and a gofundme for her legal defense has raised over $376,000

If the Governor doesn't like it why doesn't he just pardon her, or commute her sentence?

Because he’s a politician and a pussy. By his own order, salons are supposed to be closed till Friday. A week later gyms can open but people have to wear latex gloves. Not a joke.
So you transfer the virus on latex vs skin of your finger?

Yes, not only does a latex glove work great while lifting, it also prevents people from touching their face or wiping it with a towel and then touching the equipment. It would literally be better to order each person to place latex gloves into the trash before working out.
