The main purpose of this work is to provide an existence and uniqueness result for the solution of a linear parabolic system posed on a star-shaped network, which presents a new type of Kirchhoff's boundary transmission condition at the junction. This new type of Kirchhoff's condition - that we decide to call here local-time Kirchhoff's condition - induces a dynamical behavior with respect to an external variable that may be interpreted as a local time parameter, designed to drive the system only at the singular point of the network. The seeds of this study point towards a theoretical inquiry of a particular generalization of Walsh's random spider motions, whose spinning measures would select the available directions according to the local time of the motion at the junction of the network.
