    Burney v. State , 299 Ga. 813, 820 (3) (b), 792 S.E.2d 354 (2016). Although Green bears the burden of showing he was denied the right to be present at the bench conference, the State bears the burden to show he waived that right. Pruitt v. State , 354 Ga. App. 73, 76 (2), 840 S.E.2d 597 (2020).
