History
I don't think they are talking about using physical force here (i.e. "violence"). This is talking about a legal issue having to do with a dowry in Roman times. I considered rape or violation of the agreement, but I just can't be sure. The paper is very arcane and hard to understand.
"La explicación que encontramos es que la respuesta que da el rescripto al problema planteado es doble, de una parte, hallamos una referencia a un interdicto en la expresión “praeses provinciae interpellatus vim prohibebit”, el praeses provinciae impedirá la violencia. "

law suit / interpellatio
I believe - based of what little I remember from my studies of Latin 30 years ago - that the Spanish translation is incorrect.
praeses provinciae interpellatus vim prohibebit”,
does not mean:
el praeses provinciae impedirá la **violencia**
it means (+/-):
praeses provinciae impedirá la demande en justicia
i.e., the provincial ruler will over-throw/prohibit/rule out the legal suit

Comment: "Thanks, it turns out violence in this case is physical force according to the Latin - English translators."
