Can a minor be served a court summons in Texas without parents present?
In Texas, a "child" is a person below the age of 18 who is not otherwise emancipated by being married, enlisted in the military, or had their disability (i.e., childhood) removed by a competent court of law. As such, a "child" cannot be forced to attend court without a parent(s), a guardian, or a court appointed attorney ad litem. To force a child to come to court, the parent, guardian, or court appointed attorney ad litem is served with the a "subpoena duces tecum" and that person is ordered to produce the "child" in court for examination, much like having a person bring a paper or other object to court. So, in English - No, a minor cannot be served a court summons in Texas without parents (or guardian) present in court, nor can a child be compelled by the court or held in contempt for failure to appear if the service is upon the child only. The parent or guardian CAN be punished for failing to bring the child to court, however, including being held in contempt of court and put into jail or fined or both.

Will municipaliities send second summons to appear in court if you miss first apparence?
In a criminal court you will not receive a second summons to appear, you'll be issued a bench warrant. Should you be stopped by Police for a minor traffic violation and they discover the bench warrant, you're going to be arrested. If this was a summons for a civil case and you're the defendant, the plaintiff may have motioned for a default judgement. You should appeal the default judgement with a reason as to why you did not appear in court on the day your case was to be heard or called. If you were the plaintiff, the defendant can also motion for dismissal with prejudice (that the case cannot come before the courts again), you may also appeal this motion by simply appearing at the motion hearing.
