"Being a lawman, I could use some protection against those corrupt types who might think to seize the opportunity here on my planet. That armor is mine."
―Sheriff Cobb Vanth[1]

Sheriff was a law enforcement title used by police officers.[1] With the disbanding of the Imperial Senate, many local governing institutions were dissolved as well, leaving sheriffs from the Anoat sector out of work.[2] Cobb Vanth held the position on the planet Tatooine shortly after the Battle of Endor.[1] By circa 9 ABY,[3] Vanth was instead using the title of marshal.[4]

  3. StarWars SWCC 2019: 9 Things We Learned from The Mandalorian Panel on StarWars.com (backup link) establishes that The Mandalorian is set about five years after the events of Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 4 ABY. Therefore, the events of The Mandalorian must have taken place around 9 ABY.
