MOSCOW - Russia's Supreme Court formally rehabilitated the country's last czar yesterday, declaring Nicholas II and his family were unlawfully killed by Soviet authorities.
The ruling negates the Romanovs' culpability in crimes the Bolsheviks used to justify the 1917 revolution and the slaying of the czar and many of his relatives the following year.
'The presidium declared as groundless the repression of Czar Nicholas II and his family and rehabilitated them,' said Pavel Odintsov, the Supreme Court spokesman.
The decision reverses the court's ruling of November, 2007, that the killings did not qualify as political repression, but were premeditated murder

Boston Scientific earlier in the morning said that it will appeal the decision of a judge who awarded rival Johnson & Johnson roughly $700 million in damages and interest in a patent lawsuit.
Boston Scientific added that the US District Court in Delaware has entered judgment against the company in a case involving a patent owned by Johnson & Johnson and Boston Scientific's NIR stent product.
In the judgment, the judge awarded Johnson & Johnson damages in the amount of $406,670,987 and pre-judgment interest in the amount of $296,140,867, said Boston Scientific, which noted that it hasn't sold the NIR stent since 2004.
The original lawsuit was filed in 1997, Boston Scientific said. Johnson & Johnson is based in New Jersey.
Stents are small wire mesh tubes that keep arteries open that have been cleared during a medical procedure. (By Chris Reidy, Globe staff)
