(NEXSTAR) — Another 56 Big Lots stores across 27 states are slated for closure, according to the latest filings by the retailer.

It’s been more than a month since the Ohio-based company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection

Big Lots had stores in nearly every state ahead of its bankruptcy filing, except Alaska and Hawaii. South Dakota recently became the third state without a Big Lots store after its sole location in Rapid City closed. 

So far, Big Lots has yet to announce plans to close stores in Delaware, North Dakota, or Rhode Island. Across those states, it maintains seven locations.
