(Fargo, ND) -- Hansen Elevator Service of Elbow Lake, Minnesota is facing a new ban on doing business in North Dakota.

Stutsman County District Court imposed the ban this week after finding the business had engaged in consumer fraud. The court found the company had contracted to perform services and repairs but didn't follow through.

Owner David Hansen was ordered to pay restitution, civil penalties, and Attorney General's costs.

Hansen was already under a five-year ban for consumer fraud that was ordered by the Cass County District Court in 2021.
