"Plaintiff's represent the person who initiated the law suit. You can represent yourself in a court proceeding but that will not make you a lawyer. When a corporation is involved in a lawsuit, meaning they have decided to take someone to court, they are the plaintiff. In a divorce hearing, the spouse that asked for the divorce and acquired the paper work is the Plaintiff."

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.
