if they went into some warehouse properly tagged, and were still sealed and in the warehouse N years later, that's generally going to be good enough.
if the defense wants to raise some objection, they're welcome to, but they'd need to come up with some actual reason the chain was broken. like, records that the warehouse was broken in to during the time that sample was stored, or, the EV tape was cut and not resealed by some testing tech, etc.
