The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on February 7, 2022, the unsealing of an indictment that charged Chinese telecommunications company Hytera Communications with conspiring with former Motorola Solutions employees to “steal digital mobile radio (DMR) technology from Motorola.”
This announcement is just the latest piece in a multi-year saga involving the theft of Motorola’s intellectual property (IP) by employees prior to their departure from Motorola. While the DOJ indictment redacts the name of the employees who are included in the indictment, a look back into the civil litigation between Motorola and Hytera provides clues as to their identities.
