Solution 1

Here you go

Supose your list is mylist;

C#

newList= _mylist.Remove(a => a.Place == "aaa").ToList();

Here the items matching the criteria will be removed from _myList also.

If you want to maintain the original list and have a list not containing some items, then you need to assign the original list to another variable and remove items from there
i.e

C#

newList = _mylist;
newList.Remove(a => a.Place == "aaa").ToList();

if your object contains a property called "Place" you will surely get a.Place when you access it.

can you share class which a list contains ?
