Edgar Bailey, Jr. v. State of Tennessee

Case Number
E2022-01302-CCA-R3-PC

The Petitioner, Edgar Bailey Jr., appeals from the Hamilton County Criminal Court’s
denial of his petition for post-conviction relief from his convictions for first degree felony
murder, setting fire to personal property, and three counts of aggravated assault. The
Petitioner is serving an effective life sentence. On appeal, the Petitioner contends that: (1)
the post-conviction court erred when it denied relief under the Post-Conviction DNA
Analysis Act of 2001 (the DNA Act), Tennessee Code Annotated sections 40-30-301 to -
313 (2018), and (2) the Petitioner is entitled to relief under the cumulative error doctrine.
We affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.
