Legal Question in Business Law in Missouri

Court orders

If I perform a service for someone in a legal case (for example, drug testing) and the person shows up for the service with a court order that states when I finish my service, I am ''ordered'' to release information about the service to the attorneys involved...am I legally obligated to do so if the person who I provided the service to told me to not release it to the people listed in the court order?
