Shame on me/partner

Boys 14 and under wreck game. A1 is dribbling the ball in up the floor in the back court. A2 is in the front court. A1 passes the ball to A2 who jumps, catches the ball in the air and lands in the back court. I call a back court violation.

Partner comes in and informs me that I was incorrect in the call as "that principle only applies after the ball has passed half court," he says. He tells me that we are going to call in an inadvertent whistle and give the ball back to A.

Who is to fault for the wrong call. Me for allowing him to overrule my call or him for overturning a correct call. And I know full well that no official has the authority to overrule another officials call. If it was wrong I would understand taking the heat, but it was the wrong call.

BTW, I was the T official
