1Opinion of the CourtDolliver, J.
The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (the Department) and the Defendant, Kenneth Carlson (Carlson), seek review of a Court of Appeals’ decision reversing the trial court’s grant of summary judgment in their favor. Duskin v. Carlson, 83 Wn. App. 694, 922 P.2d 1373 (1996). This case addresses the adequacy of the form letters and brochures the Department sends to injured workers who have potential third party *553claims. The Court of Appeals held the correspondence too vague to constitute a demand that the worker elect whether to pursue a claim or assign it to the Department.
