Barry Todd Albin (born July 7, 1952) is an American lawyer and former judge from New Jersey. He served as an associate justice of the New Jersey Supreme Court from 2002 to 2022. A Democrat, Albin is noted for his jurisprudence in New Jersey's criminal law, in which his opinions would frequently favor the due-process rights of criminal defendants.

The final opinion he wrote involved how municipalities may fill vacated seats.
