NF 4-44-5 Traveling

During a scramble for a loose ball, A1 gets possession of the ball, while on both knees. With no defensive pressure, A1 moves one leg from from having the knee on the floor to a foot. There is no apparent "...attempt to get up or stand." -- NF 4-44-5 b. A1 then passes the ball to a A2 and play continues.
Coach B protests that the knee to foot movement is traveling.
Is there any written statement that changing the position of one leg from knee contact with the floor to foot contact, constitutes an "attempt to get up or stand" and thus a traveling violation?
