subvarsity game last night my partner the trail in transition at half court made an incorrect ruling and I am wondering how I should have handled it?

A1 attempted a 3 pointer in transition, the ball rebounded off of the fingers of B1 and then A2's finger tips and then bounced into the backcourt where A3 caught it. there was no team control in the front court following the shot so there can not be a back court violation (which I only recently learned from this board).

My partner whistled this a backcourt violation and no one really complained very much. I knew the call was incorrect but I did nothing - if team As coach had challenged the call I would have gave my opinion. My partner and I discussed the call post game and he admitted he did not know the rule but he thanked me for not over-ruling him because he felt that would have hurt his credibility in what was a physcial game.

In these situations where there is no judegment, like there is on a partner's foul call and I am 100% certain the call is incorrect rule application; is it better to get the call right? or to ignore?

thanks again
GTW
