44It is true that this principle of interpreting national law in conformity with EU law has certain limits. Thus, the obligation on a national court to refer to the content of EU law when interpreting and applying the relevant rules of domestic law is limited by general principles of law and cannot serve as the basis for an interpretation of national law contra legem (see, to this effect, judgments of 15 April 2008 in Impact, C‑268/06, EU:C:2008:223, paragraph 100, and of 15 January 2014 in Association de médiation sociale, C‑176/12, EU:C:2014:2, paragraph 39).
