(Apart from IVF babies)
I mean one twin that was born before midnight on a particular day and one after midnight on the following day.
Best answer for anybody that can find evidence.

Good so far, How about any that are in different school years.
In the UK, the cut off date is 31st August. It is possible, therefore to have one twin born on 31st August and one on 1st of September. They would then be in different year groups. - One would start in January, the other in the following September.

I read about this in a couple of books on twin pregnancy. I'm the mother of 11 month old identical twins.
1. In very rare cases the doctors are forced to deliver one baby (for instance due to fetal distres) but are able to stop labor and the other baby is born days, weeks or even (in very rare cases) months later. This is only possible in cases where they are fraternal twins and have seperate placentas.
2. It's actually pretty rare (but not unheard of) for twins to be born on different days because so many are born via scheduled c-section. And they don't generally schedule them for midnight! :-)
3. There's a case in the news recently about twins being born two months apart in Romania. Check it out at: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4249203.stm
Hope this helps!

Yes. Didn't you watch the news around New Years 2000? Two little twin girls in New Zealand were born. One on December 31, 1999 and the next an hour later on January 1, 2000 becoming the first set of twins in the new Millenium.

I'm sure that it has happened. I looked on Wikipedia. I didn't find proof to your question. But I did find this (which I think is pretty interesting!):
"Among fraternal twins, in rare cases, the eggs are fertilized at different times with two or more acts of sexual intercourse, either within one menstrual cycle (superfecundation) or, even more rarely, later on in the pregnancy (superfetation). This can lead to the possibility of a woman carrying fraternal twins with different fathers (that is, half-siblings). This phenomenon is known as heteropaternal superfecundation. One 1992 study estimates that the frequency of heteropaternal superfecundation among dizygotic twins whose parents were involved in paternity suits was approximately 2.4%; see the references section, below, for more details."
