Child support is always modifiable if there is a substantial change of circumstances. If your husband is earning more then you need to file for a modification of child support. That is done by filing a Complaint and Summons and a motion for a temporary hearing with the family court. He then has to be served at least 5 business days before the hearing is scheduled.
The answer to the other questions regarding the $74.00 is you can file a contempt action because is is violating a court order. You must prove that he is intentionally and wilfully violating a court order for him to find in contempt. If he is found in contempt he can be ordered to go to jail for up to a year, be fined, or be required to pay community service. Also if he is found in contempt he will be responsible for the attorney fees.
