Depends on what the hearings are for, whether you filed or your spouse filed for divorce, and whether they show up. If they filed and/or if they show up and push the case forward, you will eventually wind up divorced. You will also probably be paying the court and/or your spouse a lot of money in sanctions. If you filed, and/or they do not show up either, you will not get divorced, and you will probably pay a lot of money to the court in sanctions.

Your case could get dismissed if you don't show up for trial.
