(b) If a guardian has been appointed, the proceedings may be continued:
(1) Upon the application of the guardian; or
(2) Upon the notice to the guardian.
(c) Upon the death or incompetence of a party, the court may extend the time within which a petition to confirm, vacate, or modify the award, or to stay arbitration, must be made.
(d) If a party dies after an award was delivered, the subsequent proceedings are the same as where a party dies after a verdict.
