The decision was the latest of many to go against Yukos during a more than yearlong legal campaign against the company and its former chief executive Mikhail Khodorkovsky. His ongoing trial on tax and fraud charges is expected to drag on for months, and analysts expect more claims against the company he built to follow - evennJally pushing the final bill to well beyond $10 billion for 2000-2003.
