front court when neither the ball nor the player is touching the back court.
Since the neither the player nor the ball is touching the backcourt, the ball must be in the front court. ??
I agree with Camron that an interp / change is needed.

clarification would be helpful. i do think to determine status when ball in air and player in air you have to look at airborne player location rule. i dont think rule above applies. that deals with thrown passes etc that strike the court or players holding ball near division line. lift a foot etc...imo
