Without knowing more facts and just going off what you stated, it sounds a Motion to Show Cause was filed against you and you were found to be in contempt. When you are found in contempt the judge is required to give you an opportunity to cure your contempt. In this case, the way to cure the contempt is to pay the arrears of $4,600. I would recommend you contact a local attorney.
