Research notes

  • The cited URL no longer serves the notice. Legacy.com has restructured its obituary paths and /nz/obituaries/nzherald-nz/name/finn-batato-obituary?id=35202303 now returns a generic 'Find an Obituary' search shell whose result list links to /person/finn-habib-batato-40999595. That canonical page is recorded as the url; the cited path is preserved as the input.
  • The notice establishes the date and cause of death only. It says nothing about the United States dropping extradition proceedings against Batato in 2021, which the citing record also asserts.
  • The page lists the New Zealand Herald and Sibuns Funeral Directors & Advisors as the partner sites where the notice appeared.
  • No Wayback Machine snapshot exists for the cited URL, so no archive_url could be recorded.
