Judge would have not allowed it to continue and your lawyer would most likely get a call from the judge asking WHERE the fuck they are. Your court date would get pushed down the line some more, so you can find better council. In a just world.
I wonder what would happen if you showed up to court and explained the issue to the judge and asked them if there was anythin that could be done about a lawyer who took payment but never provided legal assistance.
Hire a lawyer.
Better Call Saul

That sounds like sabotaging your own career. That Judge will remember that.
Are you sure you hired a lawyer? Or did you just get a random scam artists number?
