CHICAGO (CBS) -- The water will stay on at a south suburban mobile home park, at least for a few weeks.

Residents in Blue Island had been expecting their water to be shut off next Monday, days before Thanksgiving.

The current balance owed was $850,000.

Residents will better understand what happens next in court on December 12th.
