A sheriff or marshall will come looking for him, and take him forcibly to the court, where he may be found in contempt, fined, or even sent to jail. A subpoena is a Court Order, and cannot be ignored.

They Issue A Warrant For Your Arrest And You Go To Jail If The Cops Get Their Hands On You.Like If You Get Pulled Over For A Traffic Violation And The Cop Looks On His Little Computer In His Car And Sees That It Says You Have A Warrant, You Go To Jail.

He is guilty of contempt of court which is a misdemeanor offense, and will result in an arrest warrant and a criminal record. (all of this is spelled out in a subpoena)

Most likely the judge will issue a bench warrant for contempt on you and you can be arrested for it.
