• gerichtshösten? (or gerichtschösten)

@Ulrich Neitzel : Thanks once again! I hadn't seen that version of hiesiger yet!

The word is allhiesiger [Kirche], respectively, [des] allhiesigen Gerichtsschöffen. Allhiesig means "local", -er and -en are grammatical endings. Gerichtsschöffe is a jury member or lay judge.
