1. R4 jumps to tip a ball and the foot lands across, but over (above) the center line. S3's foot is 8 inches to the left of R4's penetrating foot. Foot is across the center line, but legally so, even though S3's foot is nearby, this would be a legal play.
2. Same as above, only the foot is now entirely beyond the center line, with S3's foot in the same proximity. Violation.
3. Same as 1, but with no S player nearby to present a safety hazard. Play on.
I would recommend that if you need further clarification, you contact Marcia Alterman directly, as she is very good at explaining the interpretations.
