You need to contact your local county or state bar association for a referral to an attorney who can review your case in greater detail. Notice is required for virtually all court hearings, and trial judges generally do a very good job of carefully reviewing the file to ensure that notice was properly given, particularly when the other side fails to appear. Whether such notice was sent to you, whether it was lost in the mail or misdelivered, whether it was delivered but you inadvertently threw it away without realizing what it was...an attorney will need to go over the various possible scenarios, including the specfic type of hearing you are referring to, in order to provide you with a meaningful answer to your question.
