“Inconsistent stackmap frames” exception when trying to create a new object - maven

Question

I'm having trouble to write a Unit Test because I'm getting this exception when trying to create a new object of EquifaxDLPingRequest class. I've simplified the code just to show the problem:
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.powermock.core.classloader.annotations.PrepareForTest;
import org.powermock.modules.junit4.PowerMockRunner;
#RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
#PrepareForTest({EquifaxDLPingRequest.class})
public class SimpleTest {
#Test
public void test() {
EquifaxDLPingRequest equifaxDLPingRequest = new EquifaxDLPingRequest("");
}
}
When the equifaxDLPingRequest is created I'm having this exception:
java.lang.VerifyError: Inconsistent stackmap frames at branch target 46

The exception is thown only when I add #PrepareForTest({EquifaxDLPingRequest.class}) but I have to use PowerMockito and #PrepareForTest({EquifaxDLPingRequest.class}) because later I have to mock a local variable.
I know about the -XX:-UseSplitVerifier and -noverify jvm options but I can't use them in my project.
Can anyone explain why this is happening and how can I solve it?
