The plant in Fremont, south of San Francisco, had been closed since March 23 in an effort to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
But early Monday evening Musk tweeted that Tesla is 'restarting production today against Alameda County rules'.
'I will be on the line with everyone else,' the CEO continued. 'If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me.'
The controversial move comes as the latest salvo in an ongoing war between Musk and Alameda County, after Tesla filed a lawsuit against local officials on Saturday for ordering the the Fremont facility to shutter until June.
