    You missed court or you missed a summons bring served on you?

    If court, there's a chance you'll have been convicted in your absence, get onto Court clerk to find out.

    If you weren't home when gardai tried to serve a summons on you, then they'll Judy come back another time.

    The summons itself or possibly the covering letter (the one with a list of exempted people) should outline the possible penalties for not showing up if they decide to prosecute you.

    I'm assuming that you got a jury summons in the post asking you to show up for jury duty today, your post is pretty vague.
