Explanation:
I'm not sure how this is best phrased in English but found some examples of this turn of phrase.

Here is the explication of the meaning of "analogi" in this context from Von Eyben's law dictionary:

"anvendelse af en retsregel på tilfælde, der ikke omfattes af lovens ord, selvom der anlægges en meget vid sproglig forståelse af dem, såfremt de samme grunde taler for at følge lovens regel i begge tilfælde. a. forudsætter som regel et "hul i loven", dvs. at der ikke haves nogen anden lovregel, der afgør tilfældet."
... and then he continues with the explanation.

Hope that helps!

Explanation:
At EUR-lex a simple search by word results in 4 hits: http://tinyurl.com/46pms2t
Two of these use the suggestion I am making here. I achieved more convincing results by conducting a new search for i analogi med and got 207 hits! Personally, I would be careful with replacing it with in accordance with as I am not sure if they can be used interchangeably, especially in a legal text.
