Corrections April 25

An article on Monday about a case before the Supreme Court challenging an Arizona immigration law, and the possible effect a ruling might have on a similar law in Georgia, described imprecisely the timing of discussions between the Georgia Agribusiness Council and Gov. Nathan Deal on legislation there.  While the business council expressed its concern to Governor Deal, it did so before the law was enacted, not after. (It was to federal officials that the council complained after the law took effect.)

An article on April 14 about the photo-sharing Web site Instagram misstated, in some editions, the age of Jack Dorsey, a Twitter founder and early Instagram investor. He is 35 years old, not 40.

BUSINESS DAY

The DealBook column on Tuesday , about executives from scandal-tainted companies who serve on the boards of other companies, gave outdated information about such service by H. Lee Scott Jr., who was chief of Wal-Mart Stores in the period when its Mexico unit was involved in widespread bribery. Mr. Scott stepped down from the Goldman Sachs board last year; he is not currently a director there.

A picture caption on April 16 with an article about media coverage of the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Florida misidentified the man shown with Sybrina Fulton, Trayvon's mother, during an interview with Bill O'Reilly on Fox News. He is Benjamim Crump, the lawyer for Ms. Fulton; he is not Tracy Martin, Trayvon's father. (Mr. Martin was shown in another picture with Ms. Fulton when they were interviewed by Nancy Grace on the cable channel HLN.)

•

An article on Tuesday about Mexico's effort to hold its Pemex oil monopoly more accountable for its production decisions misidentified the location of the Institute of the Americas, whose director, Jeremy Martin, commented on the move. It is in the La Jolla neighborhood of San Diego — not Los Angeles.

SPORTS

A picture on Tuesday with an article about the Philadelphia Eagles' propensity for making trades was published in error. It showed running back LeSean McCoy, who has not been involved in a trade — not cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, who was acquired by the Eagles last July.

•

An Associated Press report in the baseball roundup on Tuesday misidentified, in some copies, the Boston third baseman who caught a Josh Willingham line drive for a critical out in the eighth inning of the Red Sox' victory over the Minnesota Twins. Kevin Youkilis made the play — not Adrian Gonzalez, who plays first base.

•

An article on April 14 about the Hall of Fame horse trainer Bob Baffert's return to Oaklawn Park after a heart attack misstated his record at that track entering the Arkansas Derby. He had won 15 of 24 career starts there, not 14 of 23 or 15 of 25. The article also misstated, in some editions, his number of children. He has five, not four. (Baffert's winning record improved to 16 after his horse Bodemeister won at Oaklawn.)

OBITUARIES

An obituary on Friday about Stanley R. Resor, who as secretary of the Army from 1965 to 1971 oversaw the troop buildup in Vietnam, misstated the number of United States Army troops there in both 1966 and 1968, and a correction in this space on Monday also gave incorrect figures. The number of Army troops increased to about 360,000 in 1968 from about 117,000 in January 1966, not to 1.5 million from 961,000, as the article initially stated, or to 500,000 from 180,000, as the earlier correction said. (The 1.5 million represented Army troops everywhere during those years and the 500,000 represented all troops in Vietnam at those times, not just Army troops.)
