The Moscow City Court has announced a two-year reduction in the prison sentences for former oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky and his business partner, Platon Lebedev.
On December 20, the court cited changes in Russian laws on economic crimes.
Both were convicted of evading taxes and for stealing oil from the Yukos oil company and laundering the proceeds.
The decision means both could be released in 2014.
