A Delaware Superior Court judge on Wednesday allowed two lawyers to testify on behalf of a company accused of orchestrating a scheme to circumvent Delaware’s unclaimed property laws, saying that a lack of guidance from state officials had led experts to rely on each other to advise clients.

The ruling from Delaware Superior Court Judge Paul Wallace nixed an attempt by government attorneys to exclude the expert opinions of Jennifer Borden and James Ryan, who have each spent more than two decades representing firms in state-initiated unclaimed property audits.
