When Mike receives the motorcycles, he examines them and discovers that five of
the bikes are damaged and do not conform to the contract, that states the bikes
will be delivered in excellent condition. Mike pays Andy for 20 bikes and
refuses to pay for the five damaged bikes. Andy disagrees with Mike and files a
lawsuit in the circuit court in Illinois claiming that the bikes do conform to
the contract and that Mike owes him the purchase price for all 25 bikes. Mike
claims that the Illinois court has no personal jurisdiction over him, while
Andy claims that the state does have jurisdiction over him because he knowingly
did business with an Illinois company. Assume that there is no applicable
