I have a root object that contains a collection of child items. At some time the root object has a state so that there is no longer legal to delete child items. I would like this to prevention occur before the actual save of the objects.

How can I accomplish this?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

In your BLB you can have your BLB ask it's parent if children can be removed or not, which would likely be in your override of RemoveItem.

Yes, that's it, override RemoveItem. Thanks
