Editing Order and Justice (section)

===Renaming and joining the government (2006–2016)===
The congress of the party, held on 13 May 2006, declared, that the party had passed a difficult stage of its establishment successively, encouraging people of Lithuania to constantly oppose corruption and power misapplication in the country and changing the name of the party to 'Order and Justice'. The formal reason for changing the name was the fact that four different political groups used the word 'liberal' in their names. According to unofficial views of some party members, the new name mirrors the party's more conservative position than when it was founded in 2002.

In the [[2007 Lithuanian municipal elections|2007 municipal elections]], although the party was disappointed with the general results, it won a [[Plurality (voting)|plurality]] in [[Vilnius]], and formed a coalition with the [[Social Democratic Party of Lithuania|Social Democratic Party]] (LSDP) under mayor [[Juozas Imbrasas]].<ref name="Algis Krupavicius 2008">{{cite journal |last=Krupavicius |first=Algis |date=December 2008 |title=Lithuania |journal=[[European Journal of Political Research]] |volume=47 |issue=7–8 |pages=1048–59 |doi=10.1111/j.1475-6765.2008.00800.x }}</ref> This was despite Law and Order members of the Seimas then supporting [[motion of no confidence|motions of no confidence]] in several LSDP cabinet members for handling of the [[privatization|privatisation]] of [[Alita (company)|Alita]].<ref name="Algis Krupavicius 2008" />

The Order and Justice Party ran in the [[2008 Lithuanian parliamentary election|2008 election]] to the Seimas with a tactic of decontaminating Paksas, despite Paksas's inability to hold political office after his impeachment, and released a [[film]] that was shown in cinemas nationwide.<ref name="Mindaugas Jurkynas" /> Aiming to greatly increase its number of seats and form the new government, the party saw its share of the vote increase only slightly, to 12.7%, and its number of seats increase by 4, to 15.<ref name="Mindaugas Jurkynas" /> This minor increase was attributed to the rise of the [[National Resurrection Party]], which shared the same electorate as the Order and Justice. The dramatic doubling of the centre-right's share of seats allowed them to form a government: including three parties, but not the Order and Justice.<ref name="Mindaugas Jurkynas" />

At the [[2009 European Parliament election in Lithuania|2009 European elections]], the Order and Justice won two seats, up from one in 2004, coming third. After the election, they left the disbanding [[Union for Europe of the Nations]] (UEN), and joined the more eurosceptic [[Europe of Freedom and Democracy]] (EFD).

In May 2012, ahead of the [[2012 Lithuanian parliamentary election|October 2012 election]], Order and Justice signed a pact with the [[Labour Party (Lithuania)|Labour]] and the [[Social Democratic Party of Lithuania|Social Democrats]] to cooperate in any post-election negotiations.<ref>{{cite news |title=Lithuania's three major opposition parties sign electoral agreement |url=http://www.15min.lt/en/article/politics/lithuania-s-three-major-opposition-parties-sign-electoral-agreement-526-221526 |newspaper=[[15 min]] |date=25 May 2012 |access-date=29 May 2012}}</ref> The Order and Justice joined government with these parties, which lasted up until 2016.

Following the [[2014 European Parliament election in Lithuania|2014 European election]], the Order and Justice MEPs rejoined the EFD group in the European Parliament, which was renamed [[Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy]] (EFDD) for the new parliamentary term. In [[2016 Lithuanian parliamentary election|October 2016 election]], the party fared poorly by getting 8 seats in Seimas. After this result, Rolandas Paksas resigned as party's chairman.
