Mockito verify after exception Junit 4.10

I am testing a method with an expected exception. I also need to verify that some cleanup code was called (on a mocked object) after the exception is thrown, but it looks like that verification is being ignored. Here is the code. I am using the Junit ExpectedException Rule to verify the expected exception.

@Rule
public ExpectedException expectedEx = ExpectedException.none();

@Test
public void testExpectedException()
{
   MockedObject mockObj = mock(MockedObj.class);
   MySubject subject = new MySubject(mockedObj);
   expectedEx.expect(MyException.class);
   expectedEx.expectMessage("My exception message.");
   subject.someMethodThrowingException();
   verify(mockObj).
       someCleanup(eq(...));
}

It seems like the verify is totally being ignored. No matter what method I put in the verify, my test is passing, which is not what I want.

Any idea why thats happenning?
