You could modify your unhighlight-function to check if an element of
the group is marked as invalid. Something like this:
unhighlight: function(element, errorClass) {
if (element[0].name == "306" && $("#301").is(".error"))
return;
if (element[0].name == "301" && $("#306").is(".error"))
return;
element.removeClass( errorClass );
}
