Nothing! But the fact of the matter is how do you know that a Court Notice is being sent to you? You having cognizance that a court notice will be served on you and you are not deliberately not receiving it turn the case against you.

Also you not being appearing to court will allow the court to pronounce the judgement exparte.
Generally speaking, if you don’t receive notice on a legal matter then you won’t appear when expected, and you’ll either wind up with a bench warrant for your failure to appear or a default judgment entered against you, depending on the specifics of the situation.

Both of these can usually be remedied upon discovery that you did not receive notice by contacting the court and scheduling a hearing to resolve the problem.

Note: if you did something to intentionally avoid service, don’t expect the court to look kindly on your activities.

When notice is issued you have to receive it and if you refuse then a arrest warrant will be issued, if you are not present in house the notice will again be reissued and police will try to serve the notice.

Dear Sir,
If it is a criminal case if court notice was refused or returned as not claimed then Court will issue Non Bailable Warrant. It is a civil case then court will proceed ex parte against you and pronounce judgment against you. Contest the case by engaging the competent advocate, nothing to worry you will win.

Every accused is innocent until proven/convicted is the norm of law in India. Just because a case is pending must not effect your career. Your fundamental right to life will be in danger if job is denied just because a case is pending.

Dear Sir,
Pendency of any criminal case may curtail you to get government job but private managements may not concerned about pendency of such cases. It is better not to disclose such pendency of case. Further it is better to approach High Court under Section 482 of Cr.P.C and get a stay and thereafter get quash the said case.
