HRS §356D-65
Eviction papers when the tenant can't be served
This section covers a narrow situation: if the housing authority can't hand eviction papers to the tenant, it can get a special court order. That order lets the process server post a certified copy on the property, like on the door. No other rules are in this section.

The statute, as written — Ex parte motion
If a tenant cannot be served with an order of eviction or writ of possession, and the authority receives an affidavit or declaration stating this fact, service on the tenant may be made in accordance with a special order of the authority. The order shall require the process server to affix a certified copy of the order of eviction or writ of possession in a conspicuous place upon the premises, such as the door or wall of the dwelling unit.
