Same answer as last week, mainly because the case book hasn't changed since then.

No violation. Case book play 9.9.1SitC(b).
Are you sure? How about this play?

A1 is trapped on the sideline, in the FC. She leaps and attempts to throw the ball off B1. The ball goes off B1 but doesn't go OOB. Instead, it bounces toward the BC. A2 chases the ball, steps into the BC and grabs the ball while it was still in the FC. The ball was never in the BC, until A2 touches it? Violation?
Yes, no loss of team control, so it is the same thing as A2 holding the ball and stepping into the backcourt.
