Since you have already given your PW1 statement, the case is now fixed for your cross examination. Because you changed your address, the court summons may not have reached you, which is why you did not receive any further notice. The case will still be pending in the same court and the next date can be confirmed only by checking the court record. If you want to close or withdraw the case, you need to appear before the court and give a statement that you no longer wish to continue the proceedings. After your statement, the court will decide whether to dispose of the matter. You should visit the concerned court, update your new address in the case file, and find out the current status so that no adverse order is passed in your absence

Appear in court, and complete your evidence (cross-examination). It is not necessary to get summon/warrant issued for each and every appearance. Engage a local counsel (advocate), inspect your file and get updated by status and next listing date of your matter. SUBJECT TO NO ANY PROCEEDING STAYS FROM SUPERIOR COURT(S).
