I agree B1 should have been called for the foul.

The tricky part here is "of his own volition".

Is A1 legally out of bounds as a result of contact with B1?

Is A1 allowed to come back on the court and resume the dribble (assuming the ball is never out of bounds).

It seems to be a moot point if a foul should have been called.
Or, was the defensive play what forced A1 OOB but was not sufficient for a foul. Perhaps B1 made it legally to the spot and A1 ran into B1. There can be no foul and also have A1 end up OOB without it being of his own volitoin. It may be due to good defense or a poor reaction to the defense.
