Yes. You need to appear in court before a criminal conviction can be entered against you.
If you don't appear in court, a bench warrant would be issued and you would be hailed into court to appear.
To not appear in court and be charged with a crime would be a violation of your 6th amendment rights.

Can you provide some more information?
Basically depending on what you mean as a criminal conviction, you would have to go to court to have the judge find you guilty to get a criminal conviction.
It isnt like a speeding ticket, which is an infraction, not a criminal violation. You can pay infractions and never appear in court, but not misdemeanors or felonies.

Not necessarily. A court may enter a criminal plea without a hearing in absentia on some crimes, where the defendant enters a written agreement to plea to the offense.

Technically yes, but there is such a thing as conviction in absentia. That means you've been convicted of a crime, but failed to appear for court.

If I study you properly, your builder dedicated some style of fraud. You reached a freelance with the builder in which you won some attention and in turn agreed to no longer prosecute the builder for fraud. Now, the builder has breached a freelance. you desire to renege on your contract and recharge the builder with fraud that grow to be supposedly closed. If th e contract grow to be in writing, there is not greater fraud - you won't be able to re-value the builder with fraud on account which you won repayment from the builder (the contract) in replace for no longer pursuing fraud costs. in case you're to pursue fraud costs now, you would be in breach of the contract and open your self as much as a lawsuit. remarkable now, your purely recourse against the builder if for breach of contract.
