Legal Question in Family Law in California

I am the respondant in a divorce that my wife filed in Riverside county on 3/10/10. She made domestic violence allegations and filed a DV restraining order. We went to mediation and, then at our hearing, we both dismissed our lawyers, she released the TRO and we came to an agreement for visitation and finances which the judge signed.

Wife has now filed in Pro/Per for a new permanant restraining order and is attempting to reopen the case for more money. There is a meadiation set for 6/11 and hearing re: permanent restraining order set for 6/17/10. I have not been served for either of these, or received any notice, Do I have to attend? Can they even conduct these hearings without me present?

You don't have to go, especially if you want to lose the hearing.
