You can't really deal with this in the datasource since with static tables you don't even implement the datasource methods. The height is the way to go.

{ 
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    if (cell == cell15 && cell15ShouldBeHidden) //BOOL saying cell should be hidden
        return 0.0;
    else
        return [super tableView:tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]; 
}
