2 In legal history and/or myth one Hobson was the proprietor of a stable in feudal England. In this stable, the customer had a choice of any horse on the premises as long as he or she took the horse nearest the door. Ergo, the term “Hobson's choice” is used in the law for no effective choice at all.
