It is not a standard Koine Greek word found in common lexicons, suggesting it might be a rare or unique formation, possibly a scribal error, or a very specific legal term. Based on its components, it would refer to a legal action, a lawsuit, or an accusation brought against someone. It could describe the act of bringing a case or the case itself.
