Question:
Player A1 is dribbling, loses control, steps OOB then comes back in bounds and is the first to touch the ball. I believe this is illegal but can't find reference in the rules or case book. Anyone?

Sorry guys but it's legal. If he "loses control," there is no player control.

Hopefully this will clear it up:
His loss of controls was by his own actions. There was no interrupted dribble by a defender.
BktBallRef, where do we stand now.
(And should "loses control" only refer to when it is caused by a defender?)

As Juules said, it doesn't matter. The definition of an interrupted dribble says nothing about a defender touching the ball.
