That depends on what you mean by "served to appear in court". If you received a summons and complaint on an unpaid bill, you are required to file a written answer to the complaint and file it within a certain time period. You will not be summoned to appear in court in the same way that you would have to appear on a traffic ticket that requires a court appearance. Of course, on the unpaid bill, if you do not show up on any scheduled trial date, a judgment will probably be entered against you for at least the amount of the bill. You will not be arrested for not showing up for a civil matter.
