No, but the plaintiff will win the case by default. If the defendant fails to claim the exemptions for their property which are defined by state law, they may have to forfeit some property which otherwise may have been protected. If the defendant is a homeowner it is very important that they be aware of and use the homestead exemption to prohibit the possibility of a forced sale. The homestead exemption in most states will not keep a lien from being placed against the property or portion thereof owned by the debtor. Other actions that can be taken by the plaintiff to recover money owed are, wage or bank account garnishment, and liquidation of nonexempt assests owned by the defendant/debtor.

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.
