Henry Frederick Howard, 15th Earl of Arundel PC(Ire) (15 August 1608 – 17 April 1652), styled Lord Maltravers until 1640, and Baron Mowbray from 1640 until 1652, was an English nobleman, chiefly remembered for his role in the development of the rule against perpetuities.
He was again elected to represent Arundel in March 1640, but was called to the House of Lords by writ of acceleration as Baron Mowbray, one of his father's subsidiary titles, before he could take his seat.
After his father's death in 1646, he became Earl of Arundel and the titular head of the Howard family.
The estate plan also included provisions for shifting the titles many generations later if certain conditions should occur.
Charles sued to enforce his interest, and the court (in this instance, the House of Lords) held that such a shifting condition could not exist indefinitely.
