In papers filed with a bankruptcy court Wednesday, Solyndra said that Brian Harrison had left his post on Friday, Oct. 7, “as contemplated even before these cases were commenced.” Solyndra shut its doors and declared bankruptcy six weeks ago.
Solyndra filed the papers in a Delaware court in response to a motion by the Department of Justice to appoint a trustee to oversee the company’s bankruptcy case. The Justice Department filed its motion after Harrison and Solyndra’s CFO, W.G. Stover invoked the Fifth Amendment and refused to answer questions from a Congressional committee probing the Solyndra loan during a Sept. 23 hearing. The company is also under investigation by the Justice Department, the Treasury Department and the Department of Energy’s Inspector General.
