And because it's a false double foul, we penalize the fouls in the order they occur. So in the example I gave above, we'd shoot the free throw(s) for B1's foul, with the lane cleared. No rebounding.

Because we then have to shoot the 2 free throws for A1's technical foul (dead ball contact). And then we'd give the ball to Team B for a throw-in at midcourt.

With a true double foul (two opponents fouling each other at the same time), we record the fouls, but we simply resume play at the point of interruption. No free throws.

Thanks for the heads-up on the Rule Book references vs. the Case Book references. Sorry for the incorrect notations.
Please, please, please. Don't be sorry. It's not a big deal at all. I didn't say it to make you feel bad. I just want you to be able to look up future rule/case citations without confusion.
