OPINION

MARTONE, Justice.

This case requires us to explore the interplay among the Rules of Procedure for Special Actions, the Rules of Civil Appellate Procedure, and the Rules of Civil Procedure in a case in which an injured worker dies before the Industrial Commission makes an award. The court of appeals dismissed the worker's petition for special action. We reinstate it.
