No.
A CCJ is a judgment. The summons is just your invitation to go and explain yourself. The former may affect your credit history depending on the order.

Council Tax judgments may not even be recorded, let alone the summons.

A CCJ is a County Court Judgement. Council Tax cases are heard in the Magistrates Court, and do not appear on your credit file.
