Set it up where you can control it

After you have expressed your opinion and you partner insists that they are going the correct way, you are relieved of responsibility. Let him inbound the ball and as soon as you are sure that this is not a trick play blow it dead and switch them the correct way!
Maybe it will dwan on him then.
It should at least dawn on the coahces at that point and he may have to admit his confusion.

But again you are relieved of responsibility at this point having made two efforts to straighten out the situation.

I am remarking about responsibility thinking that this is high school or above.

Unfortunately, this mistake makes both officials look bad. Should the new Lead stand by the "correct" baseline, see the teams go the other way, then whistle? Or silently disagree(after partner discussion) and go to the incorrect baseline, which implies agreement to all attending?
Personally, I would explain his mistake to him, loudly tell both teams while pointing "White, this way" then go to the correct baseline...
