abstract:Eric Brown is the former Chief Justice of the Ohio Supreme Court. He was appointed by Governor Ted Strickland on May 3, 2010, following the death of Chief Justice Thomas Moyer on April 2, 2010.
In May, New York's insurance commissioner, Eric Dinallo, urged Brown to move the capital to ease concerns about MBIA. The company announced its decision to move the capital on the same day Moody's published a report detailing what it saw as significant deteriorations in certain home equity and other asset-backed securities backed by bond insurance.
