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)
