Is it a backcourt violation if . . .
a) A2 catches the ball while in the air with both feet last touching the court in the backcourt?
b) A2 catches the ball with one foot down in the front court and the other foot in the air, but last down in the backcourt?
FWIW, I always thought violation on both.
Thanks in advance!

a) violation
b) legal provided that the second foot never touches BC when it lands
Our association uses the phrase
You are where you are until you get where you are going.
Players jumps from BC.........1 or 2 feet touch down in FC only
