Can an officer or any person in my company remove my name from the checking account without my permission? I went to the bank and they said I was no longer on the account. I have done nothing wrong illegally or in any other way.

When someone is removed as a signer from a business account, it's usually because he or she no longer works for the business, or there is a falling out among the owners. If the bank received the appropriate documentation from the business that the governing body (partners' meeting, board of directors, management committee, etc.) had voted to remove you as a signer, the bank acted properly in acting to deny you further access.
If you believe that someone in your company acted incorrectly, you will have to confront that person or otherwise find out what happened. Then consider whether you will want legal counsel.
