My Spouse Is Being Sued For Personal Injury But Is Currently Deployed (military)

Card image cap

my spouse got into a car accident 2 years ago. our insurance paid everyone out within a few months and paid for damages. in February (2 months before the 2 year mark we live in TX) i had a woman show up at our house to serve him. she briefly showed me the papers and i informed her that he was currently deployed. i then called our insurance company and informed them of what happened, i told them the name of the person that filed the lawsuit and they said it was a backseat passenger that initially never filed a claim. they told me to send them the papers immediately once we receive them and they’ll take care of it. it’s been almost 3 months since the case has been filed and the server has came back to our home 4 times. i checked our district clerk website and noticed that the judge filed a “dismissal for want of prosecution - no answer filed” and im just wondering what this means and if they can proceed with the case w/o him being served?
