Melbourne drug kingpin Tony Mokbel will serve a shorter jail term because of injuries he sustained during a prison attack.
Mokbel put forward a bid for re-sentencing in Victoria's Court of Appeal after one of his previous drug convictions was quashed due to the Lawyer X scandal.
Justice Karin Emerton on Tuesday varied the 30-year jail term handed to Mokbel in 2012 and he was instead sentenced to 26 years behind bars with a non-parole period of 20 years.
