That would depend on who fails to appear. If the one to be paid does not appear, than the case is continued. If it is the one who is suppose to pay, than a default order is entered against the person.

Fail to appear in court for WHAT? Traffic cases: Unless it is a mandatory appearance (e.g.: DUI - vehicular homicide - hit and run - etc) )you are usually found guilty in absentia, and the fine you paid is forfeited, and points are levied against your drivers license.
