Alaska Statutes
Article 7. Recovery of Possession.
Sec. 09.45.700. Judgment in actions to recover possession.

The judgment in an action to recover the possession of real property is conclusive as to the estate in the property and the right to the possession so far as it is determined upon the party against whom it is given and against all persons claiming from, through, or under that party after the commencement of the action. However, when service of the summons is by publication and judgment is given for failure of a party to answer, that party or a successor in interest is at any time within two years from the entry of the judgment, upon application to the court, entitled to an order vacating the judgment and granting that party or a successor a new trial upon the payment of the costs of the action.
