No you must keep your court date or send an attorney. Let someone else handle the family emergency if you aren't the only one that can handle it.
If you don't show up you will lose so not be able to evict them until you can get a new court date so it is just longer you aren't collecting the rent and more you will need to garnish from their pay.
I have had to evict a tenant and I know it isn't fun especially if you don't have an attorney and try to do it yourself.
