'Please Select One' not needed in Select List in this instance.

It was added by the back-end coder:

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public List<SelectItem> getEcometryItemStatusCodes() {
        List<SelectItem> retVal = new ArrayList<SelectItem>();

        try {
            retVal.add(new SelectItem(null, "Please Select One"));
            List<EcometryItemStatusCode> results = (List<EcometryItemStatusCode>) commonCodeService
                    .getCodeList(CommonCodeTypeEnum.ECOMETRY_ITEM_STATUS_CODE);

            for (EcometryItemStatusCode v : results) {
                retVal.add(new SelectItem(v.getEcometryCode(), v
                        .getEcometryCode()
                        + " " + v.getDescription()));
            }

        } catch (Exception cgcEx) {
            log.error("Could not get EcometryTaxExemptCode SelectItems", cgcEx);
        }

        return retVal;
    }

How can I remove it when I am using rich:inplaceSelect?

  <rich:inplaceSelect id="col6b" value="#{_item.estatus}">
      <f:selectItems id="selectItems" value="#{mconsoleContext.ecometryItemStatusCodes}" />
      <a:support event="onviewactivated" reRender="col6b" />
  </rich:inplaceSelect>

component just grabs the data returned by that method. So you probably need to create another method which returns the lsit without that static SelectItem.
