If you don't receive notice of a hearing and have a warrant issued regardless?

Is the warrant legitimate in the eyes of the law? Mi's Friend of the Court sent me a show-cause hearing notice to a miscellaneous location so I never received it or knew about it's existence until after it was over and a warrant was issued for my arrest. Is the warrant legit?

Update:

The hearing notice was sent to an address that I never lived at , gave the court for correspondences, nor had any relation to whatsoever.

    Yes, it is. My guess you did receive a notice, but either didn't recognize it, ignored it, or accidentally threw it away. In any case, that doesn't make a difference. You would have been legally notified

    a good law consultant is necessary as somebody has played a false-game behind it for receiving the notice and hearing, or it might be another person with your name or address whom the law seeks. Get a good Advocate giving the details and he would get the bail first and to proceed. ( However, like thorn and the leaf play, leaf is to bear the damage )

    No it not, when there is a notice of hearing, the other party needs to produce a copy to you, along with a letter of service showing that they served you, and that letter has to be signed by you. Someone may have forged your signature
