I feel so bad for all the Justice employees, I hope they are able to find other jobs quick. However, there is good news, if you love shopping at Justice you can still purchase items online as they will be shifting all of the closures to online stores for you to continue to shop the Justice brand.

There is no word yet on when the liquidation sales will begin and when the official last day is. Those announcements will come within the next few days.
