Why would it be BC violation in #1. All 3 points weren't across. Both feet in front court but ball whether dribbled or not has not crossed the line therefore still having BC status.

Three points only applies to a dribbler. Once A1 touches the ball with 2 hands the dribble is ended and the 3 points rule no longer applies; thus giving the ball FC status by virtue of A1's position on the court.

By the player putting both hands on the ball, the dribble has ended. The 3 point rule does not apply since we don't have a dribbler. Therefore the ball has the location of the player whom is in the front court.

Dribbled ended. 1 foot FC, 1 foot BC, still FC status?

Nope, still BC as the player still has one foot (or anything) touching the BC. Different from the OP, though.

If a player is touching both the FC and the BC, the player is in the BC.

Rule 4-4 and 4-35 deal with ball location and player location respectively.

Here's a dumb question. When does your foot considered FC status. When it touches the division line or any part of the foot crosses the division line?
