Can the court issue a warrant for not responding to a summons in a civil case?

If a summons was issued then yes a warrant can be issued but I'm thinking that you might be confusing being severed with a statement of claim and a summons. Odds are the trial will simply proceed ex parte and a judgement will be entered against your husband.





I'm not sure what you mean by court costs. If you are being sued it does not cost anything to show up and defend yourself. Yes lawyers cost money but you have a right to represent yourself which is free if not advisable. Still better to show up and defend yourself than to allow the train to continue ex parte.Can the court issue a warrant for not responding to a summons in a civil case?
yes, a summons to appear means it is not a choice but a written order from the judge that he needs you their





The court can issue a warrant to make you appear or rule in favor of the other person





Exception ,A woman dose not have to show for a child support hearing ,, because the man is already wrong


and their will be no debate





most likely the court has ruled against you and you will get a copy of the details in the mail


and if a warrant is issued they will not go after you,they will wait till they see you out in public like the next time a cruiser runs your tags he will see the warrantCan the court issue a warrant for not responding to a summons in a civil case?
You bet. You can be held in contempt of court for which there are no set sentences. It's judge's choice. If you have serious good reason for refusing to be summoned, get thee to an attorney. Otherwise, you gotta show up.





You can contact the attorney who issued the summons - it will say on there that you are being called on behalf of plaintiff/petitioner or defendant/respondent and it will also give the attorney's name %26amp; contact info.





I was once summoned for a case 2,000 miles away. I called the attorney %26amp; explained thta I had moved %26amp; it would be a real hardship. As I was only a minor witness, they just said ';Don't worry about it.';





So, call the attorney who issued the summons %26amp; see what you can do.





Good luck.
Yes, no matter if it civil of criminal court if you get a summons to appear you have to be there or they can most certainly issue a warrant and put you in jail
