Guys, if this happens and you had a backcourt violation (either by over and back or 10 seconds), and you just didn't realize it until after the foul occured, I would strongly suggest you enforce that, which wipes out the foul. Remember, contact is ignored during a dead ball unless intentional or flagrant.
Coupla problems....the biggest being that's there's absolutely no rules justification to do what you're proposing. Bad advice iow.

1) There is no such animal as a "DELAYED BACKCOURT VIOLATION". If you don't call a violation when it happens, you can't call it retroactively. See case book play 5.2.3; That's the pertinent rules citation. Just get 'em going the right way.

2) Once the foul occurs, you simply enforce it. There's no rules justification anywhere that would allow you to wipe out the foul. To the contrary, case book play 4.41.2 sez that you call the foul.

3) Your quote that contact is ignored during a dead ball unless intentional or flagrant is completely irrelevant. The contact in this play occurred during a LIVE ball. At no time during the play was contact during a dead ball mentioned.
