 3. Late fee. Late fees will only be allowed if the rental agreement or lease has a
provision for late fees. Additionally, late fees are usually not allowed after the
tenant has left the property. Instead, the plaintiff is generally allowed to get
prejudgment interest after the date of service of the summons and complaint
(see section 8 of the form). AS 09.30.070 and AS 45.45.010(b).

payments that the defendant made and any amount of the security deposit that
you kept. These amounts will be subtracted from the total amount of the
judgment owed to you.
d. Section 6. Include here costs that you paid to bring this lawsuit, such as the court
filing fee and the money you paid your process server to serve the summons and
complaint. Do not include any costs you were previously awarded in the
Judgment for Possession (the eviction part).
e. Section 7. Skip this section unless an attorney represented you in this case. Do
not include any attorney fees you were previously awarded in the Judgment for
Possession (the eviction part). Civil Rule 82 determines how much of these fees
you are allowed to get from the defendant. Attach an itemized invoice from the
attorney documenting the fees.
f. Section 8. Prejudgment interest is due on the principal amount from the date the
principal became due until the date the judgment is entered. If you want interest
to begin on a date other than the date the summons was served on the defendant,

they became due, the interest rates and interest calculations, any payments, and
how such payments were applied to interest and principal. Civil Rule 58.2(b).
