What happens when the plantiff doesn't show up to court when thet owe you money from an apartment?

If the plaintiff doesn't show up to court for a case regarding money owed from an apartment, the court may dismiss the case or issue a default judgment in favor of the defendant (you). This means you may not be able to recover the owed amount unless you take further legal action. It's essential to check local laws and court rules, as procedures can vary. Additionally, you may have the option to file a motion to have the case reinstated if you have valid reasons for your absence.
