This varies by state. In general, the notice will give you a time frame (usually 3 days) in which to pay up, and if you don't pay, you can be evicted immediately after the stated period. For example, if the notice says you have three days to pay up, and you don't pay, the landlord can have you served with an eviction summons on the fourth day.

The courts can declare presidential acts unlawful or unconstitutional, if they see it to be unlawful or unconstitutional.
Summons is a notice that you have to appear in court concerning a matter. It comes from the courts. I would speculate that it came from a small claims court. At least that has been the experience that I have heard from people. The collections agency has filed a claim with the court.
If you had previously been notified of the date (e.g.: by the date on a ticket - having received a summons - by being present at a previous appearance - etc) you have no excuse. It is YOUR responsibility to remain informed of your obligations, not the courts. Also, if you have purposely been avoiding the service of a subpoena or summons, then the consequences are on you.
The probate courts in Georgia have an appellate jurisdiction. This means that these courts can receive appeals from the lower courts in the Georgian jurisdiction.
This depends on the rules of your local court. You might need to file a document called an "answer", but in many small claims courts you simply need to show up in court at the time designated on the summons you receive. Try reading the papers you were served. You might also contact a lawyer.Added: DO NOT FAIL TO APPEAR in your own defense. If you do not appear the plaintiff may well win a judgement against you "by default."
You will get a letter telling you when to report or give you a number to call. In my area you call the number and it tells you to report and the time or not to show up. You may have the same thing check with your courts.
Rule 9a of the Rules for District Courts provides: In any case in which summons is not issued or waiver filed within ninety (90) days after the filing of the petition, or alias summons is not issued within thirty (30) days after return of the summons not served, the action may be dismissed by the court without notice to the plaintiff. Okla. Stat. tit. 12, ch. 2, app. 1 (2001).
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.
you are entitled to a trial, if you feel the eviction is in error, see your clerk of courts for the step by step process to fight the evictin. you may have as little as 5 days from the date of summons. each state is different. OR pack your bags!
No, you do not automatically get a writ of certiorari when called to the Supreme Court. A writ of certiorari is a discretionary order issued by the Supreme Court to review a lower court's decision. The Court grants this writ if it believes the case raises significant legal issues or conflicts among different courts.
