We study in this paper the remnants of the contact partial order on the orbits of the adjoint action of contactomorphism groups on their Lie algebras. Our main interest is a class of noncompact contact manifolds, called convex at infinity.

Keywords: contactomorphism group, partial order, nonsqueezing
