The state Insurance Department started an investigation after it received several complaints from business owners involving insurance transactions with Bleier.
Customers said they had made payments for insurance coverage between 2014-16, only to learn the policies had been canceled for nonpayment.
The state determined Bleier failed to submit more than $93,000 in payments for at least nine companies.
Bleier’s individual and agency insurance licenses were revoked by the state in August 2017.
