Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr S Meloy's claim for unauthorised deductions from wages succeeded. At the hearing on 6 June 2022, Employment Judge Knowles, sitting at Leeds by video and with no attendance from the Respondent, held that the claim was well founded. The judgment ordered Riviera Multimedia Ltd to pay Mr Meloy £48,846.15 gross and to make the usual deductions at source for income tax and employee national insurance, accounting to HMRC as required by law.
The tribunal also dealt with a separate claim relating to pension loss and found that this was not well founded. That claim was dismissed. The short written judgment does not set out extended reasons, and no further remedy breakdown is recorded beyond the gross sum awarded for the wages claim.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
