Rite Aid is closing more than a dozen stores in Michigan after the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this week.

The company said Rite Aid stores will continue to fill prescriptions, and customers will still be able to visit its locations or shop online while it goes through its voluntary Chapter 11 process. But that process also will allow it to speed up its plan to close underperforming stores.
