Our prime goal in this note is to lay the ground for studying free boundaries close to the corner points of a fixed, Lipschitz boundary. Our study is restricted to 2-space dimensions, and to the obstacle problem. Our main result states that the free boundary can not enter into a corner $x^0$ of the fixed boundary, if the (interior) angle is less than $\pi$, provided the boundary datum is zero close to the point $x^0$. For larger angles and other boundary datum the free boundary may enter into corners, as discussed in the text.
