People can be convicted in absentia, if they cannot be found.

You haven't really given very much information about the circumstances of this person who cannot be found, so there are many other possibilities. If a witness cannot be found, then the trial simply relies on other sources of information. There are various other possibilities depending upon the reason why this hypothetical person was summoned.
