a. discharged.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario it can be said that after the court order, O'Reilly's contract with Planners & Builders is officially discharged. In the context of the law, a discharged contract is a contract or agreement that has been terminated or made null. This can happen due to many reasons, such as fulfillment of a contract, inability to fulfill one parties duties, Bankruptcy, etc. In this case it was due to a court order.
