RULE 5; Scoring and Timing Regulations.

Section 14. Timeouts Granted and Charged.
Art. 1. A timeout shall be granted and charged after a visual or oral request by a player in .a through .c or by a head coach in c. or the conditions in .d and .e exist:
a. When a player of that team is in control of the ball (this includes throwins and free throws) (Exception: Rule 5-15.1.c.).
b. When the ball is at the disposal of a player of the team entitled to the ball; or
c. When the ball is dead.
d. When the appeal for a correctable error or timing, scoring or alternating-possession mistake is reviewed and the official’s ruling is not reversed.
e. When the appeal to review the monitor for a flagrant 2 contact foul, flagrant 1 contact foul, or contact dead ball technical foul does not result in a flagrant contact foul or contact dead ball technical foul being charged. When the rulings in 5-14.1.d and e are not reversed or the time limit for correcting an error, a timing mistake, an alternating-possession mistake or the charging of a flagrant/technical foul has expired, a 75-second timeout or a 30-second timeout when a 75-second timeout is not available shall be charged to the offending team in a game not involving the electronic-media timeout format and either a 30-second or 60-second timeout charged to the offending team in a game involving the electronic-media timeout format. When this timeout is granted at the first dead ball after one of the specified time marks on the game clock for electronic-media timeouts or the first timeout of the second half, that timeout shall become an electronic-media timeout.
