Best Answer

It depends on the exact type of notice that you received. If it was as small claims lawsuit, then the court probably entered a judgment against you. If it was a subpena to appear as a witness or an order to appear for a judgment debtor's exam, you MIGHT be in contempt of court for disobeying a lawful order court. Punishment for ocntempt of court will vary by state.

For criminal trials where you agreed to appear, absolutely.

For civil trials, usually not, unless a summons was issued. That being said, failure to appear can result in a default judgment against you.

In general, yes, however if you don't, you will (normally) automatically lose the case.

Can you be arrested for failure to appear in small claims court being sued over credit card debt on the state of Wisconsin?

No. If for some reason the judge were to order you to appear and you failed to, you could be arrested for contempt of court, but there is no reason for a judge to do such a thing in a motion for judgment on a bad debt. The most likely event would be for the judge to grant the plantiff a default judgment becasue you did not show.
