Lawsuits will be laughed out of court.
Quarantines and other shut-down measures are as American as apple pie:

Gee, read Article I and you’d think not a single one of their gun laws would pass Constitutional muster.
What about Article 4 of the US Constitution? It is an obligation of the national government to guarantee a republican form of government in each state of the union. Trump should federalize the national guards of each state in which governors have installed themselves (without consent of the governed) as regional Hitlers or Stalins to enforce prudent reopening of their economies. Let the courts sort it out. Trump should forcefully ignore injunctions from minor courts and let the cases go through a normal appeal process.
” It turns out that many, if not all, of these orders would likely be struck down as unconstitutional.”
No doubt the CA SC will side with the people /s . It looks to me like it may become red state/blue state idiocy. The blue state keeps their people under house arrest and the red states loosen up. Then every time a new case pops up in a red state it will get a Drudge siren.
That’s what my fellow colleagues and I have been saying. The “orders” are not legal. Kind of like the boil first on your water. You can but you don’t gotta.
Apparently, it is our constitutional right to infect others when we know we are sick. In fact, didn’t the courts recently decide that it was okay to infect others with HIV by not informing them before engaging in carnal activities?
Everybody has the right to die even if its a horrid death.
The People’s Sewer of Kalifornia demonstrated it’s contempt for the Constitution when it passed their draconian gun laws ~2000. Once they realized their sheeple would go along with anything, then they got really ambitious.
What does the US Constitution have to do with the Peoples Socialist Republic of Kalifornia?
“All people are by nature free and independent and have inalienable rights. Among these are enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing, and protecting property, and pursuing and obtaining safety, happiness, and privacy.”
So, obtaining safety by shutting things down during a crisis is unconstitutional?
California Constitution = Lets try this no this..............
FINALLY!
Let the pushback begin.
Memorize the First Amendment!
Really? there are other states that have taken more draconian and fascist steps than California, so why aren’t they mentioned? Oh yeah because....................California!
” It turns out that many, if not all, of these orders would likely be struck down as unconstitutional.”
LOL!
All of these orders are Unconstitutional and must be struck down.
