I sincerely doubt that BP would refuse to comply with a court order, at least not if they want to keep their drilling license in tact.
I guarantee you BP will figure out a way to weasel out of this. BP isn’t one corporation, it is an international collection of several organizations. It can find very creative ways avoid liability. There has already been a great deal of chatter about this on the street. I believe it is already planning something and are currently weighing its options.
