Technically, they're right, you don't have to; in fact you don't have to appear, but if you don't appear, the complaint is most likely going to issue against you. And the chances of that complaint issuing against you are also going to be much higher if you do not have an experienced attorney representing you at that time to try to prevent the complaint from issuing.
