Do I have to write to a judge about a missed hearing?

Question Details:

I am going through a divorce, child support and domestic violence case. I just received today a letter stating notice of hearing for today at 9 am, I received the letter today. It was mailed the 17th. I did not have time to go because the mail got here at 11 am. The hearing was for motion to consolidate, from my husbands attorney. Was I supposed to even be there and can I write to the judge and show proof of the letter being stamped the 21st, that I received it today and was not aware of the hearing being today?
