You want to serve process on the defendant?
First, you will need to file an affidavit of diligent inquiry, and persuade the court to allow service by publication. I would model it after other similar notices appearing in the legal ads. Attach the desired notice to your motion, to be approved by the court in the order providing for publication. Check the Alaska Rules of Civil Procedure to see how many times this notice has to be published.
If it is so ordered, the cost will depend on how long-winded the notice is. Check with the newspaper for their rates.
