Tutanota was forced to install a backdoor by a German court (see https://www.heise.de/news/Gericht-zwingt-Mailprovider-Tutano...)
I don't think a US court can force a US company to do so.

Didn't Lavabit shutdown because of exactly that [1]?
So pretty sure the US secret courts can very much force companies to do just that and worse (even require them to be silent about it, which clearly is not the case in Germany).
