Look in the case book section 9.9C reads:
Team A is in control in its backcourt for seven seconds. A1 throws the ball toward A2 in the frontcourt. B1 jumps from A's front court and while in the air bats the ball back to A1 in A's backcourt. Ruling: A new count starts because B1 had frontcourt location when touching the ball thus giving the ball frountcourt location.

Is this the same as the above and give them a fresh 10 seconds.


No, the difference is that in Walt's play the ball hit off A3 in the frontcourt before going to the backcourt, not a Team B player. Thus, if you look over the four criteria that Mark listed, you will see that this was indeed a backcourt violation.

Had frontcourt B1 batted the ball directly into the backcourt, a fresh 10-second count should start as soon as the ball achieves backcourt status...
