Re: Local Counsel Opinion for Registration Statement on Form S-4

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are issuing this opinion letter in our capacity as special counsel in the State of Montana counsel to Burlington Coat Factory of Montana, LLC, a Montana limited liability company (the “Montana Guarantor”), one of the guarantors listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Guarantors”) and together with Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”, the “Registrants”). This opinion letter is being delivered in connection with the proposed registration by the Issuer of $450,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s 10% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Exchange Notes”), to be guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) by the Guarantors, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on or about July 15, 2011. Such Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented, is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The Exchange Notes are to be issued pursuant to the Indenture dated as of February 24, 2011 (the “Indenture”) by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors and Wilmington Trust FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Exchange Notes are to be issued in exchange for and in replacement of the Issuer’s 10% Senior Notes due 2019 issued on February 24, 2011 (the “Old Notes”), of which $450,000,000 in aggregate principal amount is outstanding and is subject to the exchange offer pursuant to the Registration Statement.

In that connection, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, limited liability company records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion, including (i) the articles of organization and operating agreement of the Montana Guarantor; (ii) the consent of the sole member of the Montana Guarantor with respect to the issuance of the Notational Guarantee dated as of February 24, 2011 (insofar as it obligates the Montana Guarantor, the “Montana Guarantee”); (iii) a certificate from the Secretary of the Montana Guarantor dated as of February 24, 2011, certifying specified matters regarding the limited liability company status and actions taken by the Montana Guarantor; (iv) a certificate from the Secretary of the Montana Guarantor dated as of November 22, 1011, certifying that each statement made by the Secretary of the Montana Guarantor in the certificate described in (iii) above, with respect to the Montana Guarantor, is true and correct as of the date hereof; (v) the Indenture; (vi) the Registration Statement; (vii) the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as February 24, 2011, by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors and Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill

As of November 22, 2011

Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporation and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC. (the “Registration Rights Agreement”); and (viii) the Montana Guarantee.

For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the genuineness of the signatures of persons signing all documents in connection with which this opinion is rendered, the authority of such persons signing on behalf of the parties thereto other than the Montana Guarantor, and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by the parties thereto other than the Montana Guarantor. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein that we have not independently established or verified, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Issuer and the Guarantors.

Our opinion expressed below is subject to the qualifications that we express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with, or effect of (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws, statutes or rules affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principals of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), (iii) public policy considerations that may limit the rights of parties to obtain certain remedies, and (iv) good faith and the duty to act in a commercially reasonable manner.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing qualifications, assumptions and limitations and the further limitations set forth below, we are of the opinion that when (i) the Registration Statement becomes effective, (ii) the Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and (iii) the Exchange Notes and the Guarantees have been duly executed and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and duly delivered to holders of the Old Notes in exchange for the Old Notes and the guarantees related thereto, the Montana Guarantee will be a validly issued and binding obligation of the Montana Guarantor.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.23 to the Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to our firm under the heading “Legal matters” in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

Our advice on every legal issue addressed in this letter is based exclusively on the internal law of the State of Montana law and represents our opinion as to how that issue would be resolved were it to be considered by the highest court in the jurisdiction which enacted such law. The manner in which any particular issue relating to the opinions would be treated in any actual court case would depend in part on facts and circumstances particular to the case and would also depend on how the court involved chose to exercise the wide discretionary authority generally available to it. None of the opinions or other advice contained in this letter considers or covers any foreign or state securities (or “blue sky”) laws or regulations.
