By rule, the referee needs to have both teams notified at the 3 minute mark (2-4-4). It was suggested that at the 1 minute mark, make another attempt to find out if the absent team was notified.

Tell your rule interpreter to read case book play 10.1.9COMMENT- "The resumption of play procedure is in effect to start the second half unless either team is not on the court. In that case, regular delay provisions are in force".
Then find a new rules interpreter.
