Hi - attached is a screen shot. I want to remove "Amador" and "TobaccoDen" from the legend. Ideally, I'd like to do it in some sort of batch method (I have 100+ layers that I'll need to do this for). Is there a way to do this other than going to the table of contents and deleting the text from the layer? Thanks so much!

I would look to see if python can accomplish this task.  Try searching the ESRI forums with keywords such as python, update legend items.

If you don't know python, it does not have a steep learning curve.

Are you looking to remove these items in the legend because they fall outside of a specific view?  If so, ESRI has out-of-the-box functionality at v10.2 that can remove legend items automatically that are not in the view.
