First of all, relax. If getting sued is your most important concerned, my advise is to quit officiating.

Having said that, you can go to just about any sports contest held and find a rule violation. You can also take EVERY precaution written and not written and still get sued. Worrying about a coach in the coaches box is probably low on my list unless he is trying to interfer with the game. Wonder if there is no box? As much as you would like , you can not 100% of the time enforce where the coaches stand or sometimes sit. If you are, then your not paying attention to the game.

Now if this how you think you should handle an unruly coach, don't use this rule to take care of directly dealing with the them. Don't allow them to be unruly, period.

As far as the league not enforcing every rule you think they should, well you have to decide if you want to work there or not. Again having said that, you can go to just about any sports contest held and find a rule violation.

Your choice.
