  1. Morris made two purchases. He purchased his neighbor Cordelia's typewriter and a computer from Crazy Computers. Regarding the typewriter, Cordelia had bought it on credit from Jack's Typewriters. Cordelia had financed the purchase with Jack's and signed a promissory note and a security agreement covering the purchase. The creditor, Jack's, did not file a financing statement, relying on the concept of automatic perfection for purchase money security interests in consumer goods. Morris was unaware of the history of the typewriter. The computer was subject to a security interest in favor of Country Bank, which had perfected its security interest by filing. Morris, by coincidence, knew of this security interest when Morris purchased the computer. Unfortunately, neither Cordelia nor Crazy Computers paid the secured creditors who now seek to repossess the collateral from Morris. What will be the likely outcome of this case?
