Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
No. If you don't appear, you will lose by default and will not be able to raise the same issues again. You may be able to disconinue the case without prejudice before the hearing, but if Florida is the same as New York, you would need the defendant's permission to do so. Alternatively you can ask the Court to adjourn the case for a time to allow you to obtain the evidence you need.
