The question is: who does have legal jurisdiction on data stored in a given country? The courts of that country, or the courts of the nationality of the company who manages the data storage?
Any court that has personal jurisdiction over the corporation. Which is to say wherever the company is incorporated or resides. At a minimum the Federal and State court where the company is incorporated will have personal jurisdiction. There are no jurisdictional borders when it comes to corporations, ether the court has personal jurisdiction over the company or it doesn't, and if it does it can issue any warrant it wants on the corporation. The court can't send it's agents to another country to execute the warrant, but they can find the corporation in contempt or charge them with obstruction of justice.
