  • Leonard Henry Courtney, 1:e baron Courtney av Penwith, född den 5 juli 1832 i Penzance, Cornwall, död den 11 maj 1918 i London, var en engelsk skriftställare och politiker. Courtney studerade i Cambridge och var där en tid privatlärare, blev 1858 praktiserande advokat och innehade 1872–1875 en professur i politisk ekonomi vid Londons universitet. År 1876 invaldes han i underhuset för en valkrets i Cornwall, som han representerade till 1900, då han föll igenom till följd av sitt boervänliga uppträdande under den sydafrikanska konflikten. Åren 1886–1892 var han underhusets vice talman ("chairman of committees"). (sv)
