¥¥ The official legal and medical records for Wayne (and the rest of the Batfamily) have been doctored to prevent identification and tracking from physical evidence (blood type, fingerprints, DNA, etc.).

€This is a perk level of Legal Immunity. It operates at the 5 point level of LI, and includes all the limitations of Informal (-50%), based solely on Commissioner Gordon’s cooperation. It is further prone to the possible influence and interference of people in authority over Gordon (typically the Mayor of Gotham) and the whims of the public or media. There is also an expectation of Batman being effective and uniquely competent in his war on crime, regularly capturing criminals, foiling their plots, and stemming any lose of life; doing so is necessary for maintaining the good will of the public and police that Gordon partially relies on to justify allowing Batman to operate. Finally, if Batman is ever credibly believed to have broken the law egregiously (eg. endangering citizens, falsifying evidence, or murder), arresting him will almost certainly become priority number one for the GCPD.
