I would think not. BEcause if I was a defense attorney and found out someone was under the influence while being deposed, I could probably get the testimony thrown out, therefore, making this effort in vain. You cannot possibly tell the correct truth while intoxicated. You might forget details or get the chain of events incorrect, ANYTHING could happen, but in the end, it would be wrought with errors and easily discharged by a good opposing attorney.

civil case
Well, the plantiff in a criminal case is (are) the people. So depending on the circumstances the case could be delayed or dismissed, at the perrogative of the judge.
Not usually. You just lose the case.
Appear on the date of the summons. If you fail to appear in court on that date, the plantiff (the party suing you) will obtain a default judgment. Whether or not you show, the plantiff is still likely to get a judgment against you. You would actually be better off trying to make a settlement with the plantiff before it goes to court. This will save you the added expense of legal fees and potentially court costs as well.
There is no plaintiff in a criminal case. The state prosecutes.
