Now, with Hogans order, I think our business is not essential and should be shut down. Boss says we are closed to the public/clients but we can still come in and maintain our staggered hours schedule.

Yes, but is it providing a service to essential businesses? If I was in Maryland they would not shut me down as I am a small machine shop and make parts for food processing and medical applications, of course that is only a small percentage of my business. I would be considered essential. I would assume all my vendors would be considered essential also as without them I could not continue to operate if I could not get supplies. I really think most business could beat the cases in court if it was a gray area whether they should shut down or not.
