Of course it's not illegal.
If you sue someone, properly serve them with notice of the lawsuit, and they fail to appear - then you win the lawsuit by default.
Unfortunately, this just means you get a judgment against the defendant. It doesn't mean you collect the money.

The guy loses the case and has to pay the deal, but sometimes they never pay !

If they don't show, you will win by default. Collecting will be your next step.
