The NFHS stipulates that assistant coaches are not allowed to stand — only the head coach.
I agree with the others that I don't think that I would have worried about it with 30 seconds left — the official should have said something in the beginning.
Personally, I really don't care that much about what coaches do as long as they are coaching. However, the rules are pretty clear on this and if the other coach is making a stink sometimes you have to go by the book.
That being said, I do not let two coaches stand up, nor allow assistants to go to the table or address me. But with this sort of situation (the JV coach taking over in the last part of the game), I think that you have to use a little common sense.
