No time goes back on the clock. Rule 5.6.3 A&B. I read and read (ok, skimmed) through the case book and really the only part that shed's some light on this situation was section 5.2.5. Anyone else know if there is a play like this in the case book?

There's a good COMMENT at the end of case book play 5.10.1SitB that relates to all timing situations:
CB 5.10.1SitB-COMMENT: Timing mistakes which may be corrected are those which result from the timer's neglect to start or stop the clock as specified by the rules. The rules do not permit the referee to correct situations resulting in normal reaction time of the timer which results in a "lag" in stopping the clock. By interpretation, "lag" or "reaction" time is limited to one second when the official's signal is heard and/or seen clearly. One second of the "reaction" time is interpreted from the time the signal was made until the official glanced at the clock.

That says to me that if you blow your whistle and then look at the clock, the interval between whistle and look
IS the lag time, you
DO NOT need to see an additional second run off.
So if you were not looking at the clock when you blew the whistle, you can correct it to the time you saw when you did look.
The only time you don't correct is if you are looking at the clock when you blow your whistle and a second or less comes off.
