Do You Attend Court Hearings?

Thanks for replying... I have been notified of every hearing and told that my attendance was "optional". I recently contacted the courts to say I may attend and was told that I would not be allowed in court room and that I would only get the opportunity to speak at the hearing if I had a problem or concern that I wanted to discuss with the judge. (Fellow FP told me the same thing). Seems like it would not be a good use of vacation time....
