Note on the entity: The database entry "Michael Labun" appears to correspond to Nicholas Labun (also rendered "Nick Labun"), an individual rather than a corporation. He is a co-founder and long-time CEO/Chairman of Lemko Corporation. No separate company named "Michael Labun" is identifiable in the record; the single tracked case names him personally as a defendant.
Company overview (associated enterprise). Lemko Corporation is a privately held wireless communications company based in Itasca, Illinois (formerly Schaumburg), founded around 2002–2004. It is venture-backed (reported Series C stage) and not publicly traded. Third-party directories estimate roughly 51–200 employees; no verified revenue figure is available. Nicholas Labun served as CEO and Chairman; Shaowei ("Shao-Wei") Pan was CTO and Bohdan Pyskir COO.
Products / operations. Lemko develops distributed, software-defined mobile wireless network infrastructure — originally marketed as CASSE/DMA (Distributed Mobile Architecture), later as DiMoWiNe. Its offerings include virtualized 2G/3G/4G LTE and 5G core network software (EPC functions), integrated eNodeB/EPC "edge" nodes, peer-to-peer and self-organizing mesh networking, and deployments for carriers, rural broadband, industrial IoT, and military/public-safety private networks.
Patent-litigation posture. The tracked case is defensive for Labun: he is a defendant (0 plaintiff, 1 defendant appearances). Motorola, Inc. v. Lemko Corporation et al., No. 1:08-cv-05427 (N.D. Ill.) was a trade-secret, breach-of-contract, copyright, and patent-ownership suit brought by Motorola against Lemko and fourteen individuals. Labun, as a former Motorola Director of Strategy, was a central individual defendant. The venue is Motorola's home district, not a plaintiff-friendly NPE forum. Separately, Lemko itself later became a patent plaintiff (asserting its portfolio against AT&T), a different posture from this record.
Notable context. In the Motorola case, Judge Matthew Kennelly denied summary judgment in January 2012 on Motorola's patent-ownership and trade-secret claims. The parties settled all pending federal and Illinois state litigation in January 2012, with claims dismissed with prejudice. A related criminal matter involved former Motorola engineer Hanjuan Jin and alleged Lemko–Huawei links.
