It will depend on the specifics. Are they refusing to hand over the license plates that are already legally property of the Tesla owner? Or are they simply refusing to work on the process of granting license plates?
If I recall correctly, the postal workers do in no way prevent the handover of packages for Tesla, they simply refuse to deliver them. Tesla is free to fetch them, nothing is withheld. I agree that something like withholding packages or license plates which are not property of the workers would be ... an act difficult to agree with.
The plates have already been manufactured and issued to Tesla. That's all working as expected.
The plates are then picked up by PostNord who has an exclusive contract with the government agency who creates and issues the plates. The union employees at PostNord are refusing to deliver the plates as is their right.
The contract with PostNord also prevents any other delivery method of the plates, including Tesla going to the plate manufacture and picking them up in person.
The fact that Tesla can't go to the plate manufacture and pick them up is the real issue. (although the judge has ruled in the interm they can go pick them up while the lawsuit continues)
