Pierre Jeannin

Pierre Jeannin (1540 - 1622) was a French statesman.

He was born at Autun. A pupil of the great jurist Jacques Cujas at Bourges, he was an advocate at Dijon by 1569 and became councillor and then president of the parlement of Burgundy. He unsuccessfully opposed the massacre of St Bartholomew in his province. As councillor to Charles of Lorraine, Duke of Mayenne, he sought to reconcile him with King Henry IV of France.

After the victory of Fontaine-Française (1595), Henry took Jeannin into his council and in 1602 named him intendant of finances. He took part in the principal events of the reign, negotiated the Treaty of Lyons with the Duke of Savoy, and the defensive alliance between France and the United Netherlands in 1608. As superintendent of finances under King Louis XIII, be tried to establish harmony between the king and the queen mother, Marie de Medici.
