I. INTRODUCTION

Johnnie Bustamante's workers' compensation administrative appeal was dismissed in the superior court due to his failure to pay for the preparation of a transcript of the Workers' Compensation Board proceedings. Because the superior court had the power to waive the transcript requirement, we remand for the superior court to decide whether to waive the requirement in this case.
