Ion C. Marinescu (1886–January 15, 1956) was a Romanian lawyer, politician and industrialist.

A graduate of the Law faculty at Bucharest University, Marinescu was vice president of the industrialists’ union and headed the Concordia petroleum company. He was Minister of National Economy under Ion Antonescu from May 1941 to August 1942. At that point, he became Justice Minister, serving until King Michael's Coup of August 1944. Arrested in October, he was charged with contributing to Romania's attack on the Soviet Union via his submissive policy towards Nazi Germany. Tried before the Romanian People's Tribunals, he was sentenced to twenty years at hard labor in May 1946. He spent time at the prisons in Jilava and Aiud, where he died nearly a decade later.[1]
