Answer:

D. The broker-dealer is obligated to comply with the order and must disclose the information.

Explanation:

There is no such thing as broker dealer-client privilege, therefore the broker-dealer must comply with the court order and must disclose all the information that they require. It doesn't matter if the client, Joe Jones, wants to disclose the information or not, the court order must be followed.
