    The Swedish Transport Agency has seven days to comply and provide license plates to Tesla, or they will face a fine of 1 million kroner (C$128K/US$93K).

    This should be theft.

        The postal company the government agency has a contract with has a strike against tesla running.

        This injunction looks like it’s forcing the government agency to break that contract. Rather than invalidating the strike.

        No, they’re being withheld by the postal agency not the agency for vehicle registration. It’s plainly theft to take possession of an item and not provide it to the owner when requested.

          That’s not theft.

          It might be a contract violation but it isn’t theft.

          Theft requires the taking of another persons property. Tesla don’t own the plates nor have they ever been in its possession.

            It might be a contract violation but it isn’t theft.

            Then Tesla should be able to ignore said contract and find a new agency to deliver the plates.

          Okay. It doesn’t change a lot of terms of the law as it’s a sympathy strike and they are within their rights to block a company.

          There are plenty of examples of every from garbage disposal to mail being part of blockades.

            Clearly not within their rights as the court has ordered them to deliver the plates while they figure out the resolution.

              The decision is for the agency to make them available for pickup, not delivery. PostNord are still the only ones allowed to deliver the plates. The agency has said they are looking into how they can do this after the decision, but it will be interesting to see what happens when it gets to a higher court.

            Then Tesla should be within their rights to find another agency to deliver the plates. But people in here are arguing that Tesla must abide by the same contract that is being ignored by the union.
