Failure To Of Jury Qualification Questionnaire

I recently received a summons to appear in court (on my birthday) to show cause as to why I shoul not be found in contempt. I was living in and out of my current residence as I had family problems. my question to you is what can I do to avoid being charged with contempt of court. How should I plea & what can happen to me if I am found guilty?
