It is the specific intent and desire of the parties herein that the issues raised in this adversary proceeding be submitted to the jurisdiction of this Bankruptcy Court for an expeditious resolution of this pending matter."

DECISION
This Court has on several occasions held that an unperfected security interest is not effective as against a trustee in bankruptcy's lien. Prior to the amendment of Ohio Revised Code Section 1309.38(B) (UCC 9-401(4)) it was determined that a trustee in bankruptcy in any event is not charged with knowledge of an unperfected security *291 interest unless all creditors he represents have knowledge. See In re Throckmorton's Inc. (1966) 4 UCC Reporting Service 240. In any case, the knowledge provision as to subsequent lien creditors has been deleted in the 1972 Code as adopted in Ohio. See decision by this Court In the Matter of American Riggers, Inc. 19 B.R. 473 (Bkrtcy. Ohio, 1982) refusing to apply the good faith filing provision since the 1972 Amendment deleting the knowledge requirement as to a subsequent filing by a creditor with knowledge. Section 1309.20(C) (UCC 9-301) acknowledges, of course, that a "lien creditor" includes a trustee in bankruptcy.
It is a common occurrence that a secured party may in good faith file in the wrong place, or not in all of the right places, when dual filing is required. If the security agreement and financing statement cover collateral of various kinds, requiring filings in different offices in order to comply with the requirements of Revised Code Section 1309.38 (UCC 9-401), this section makes the filing effective for collateral as to which it is proper. Such are not the facts instanter. See 69 Am.Jur.2d Secured Transactions § 415.
The Defendant urges that, "under the circumstances of this case, the Court should assert its inherent equitable powers and allow White's secured claim. The circumstances resulting in the filing of a financing statement only in Clinton County has been set out above. . . . Further, it would work a substantial injustice upon White who at all times reasonably relied on the Debtor's information. . . ."
The facts demonstrate that the improper filing was no doubt at least in part due to an interpretation of information as to the residency and place of doing business as supplied by Debtor.
The principles of equity would be operative, however, to rectify only the relationship of the secured party and the debtor. As between these parties, the security interest would have been valid and enforceable.
It is important to note, nevertheless, that Defendant now seeks to apply equity to defeat the lien of a trustee in bankruptcy under both the federal bankruptcy law and the Ohio statutes. Perfection or the lack of perfection under Article 9 of UCC relates only to the priority over other secured creditor's interests in the collateral. Ohio Revised Code Section 1309.38(B) as to good faith filing does not in any way alter the basic UCC notice filing concepts and, as mentioned in Throckmorton's, "any other holding would in effect, nullify the filing sections of the Uniform Commercial Code. . . ."
It would be absolutely incongruous to apply equitable principles to defeat the rights of third parties who were in no way involved in the questioned transaction. Equity acts in personam, not in rem. As against a subsequent estate, interest, or title, equity cannot confer a superior interest or title. Equity courts are bound by positive provisions of a statute equally with courts of law and in the administration of assets do not interfere with absolute legal priority. See 27 Am.Jur.2d, Equity §§ 122, 124.
We find our prior decisions consistent with the conclusion in Anderson's UCC, Sec. 9-401: 29 at page 449: "The risk of filing in the wrong county is a risk to which the creditor is subject and it is immaterial that the debtor has misled him as to the debtor's address, for the creditor has the burden of verifying the information in order to be certain that he has satisfied the minimal requirements of the Code with respect to filing. Filing in the wrong county fails to perfect the interest of the creditor and this is so even though the filing is made based on the address given by the debtor, the creditor assuming that the address was the residence address as well as the business address of the debtor."
Conformably to this Court's decision in Butz, Trustee v. Society National Bank of Miami Valley (1983) Case No. 3-82-0571, Adv. No. 3-82-00546, a judgment entry journalizing the decision herein will be held under advisement pending resolution of the jurisdictional questions pertaining to Bankruptcy Court judgments *292 until the Congress by legislation confers unquestioned jurisdiction either upon Bankruptcy Judges or District Judges which can bear constitutional muster. If the litigants herein finalize a settlement agreement in the interim based upon the above ratio decidendi, such agreement should be reduced to writing and submitted to the Court for filing in the caption adversarial file.
