StackOverflowError when removing ArrayList object

I have an arraylist of classes and when I perform the below function I get a StackOverflowError thrown sometimes and I'm not 100% sure why, surely the if statement should rule this out? It only contains <500 elements as well and no other threads fiddle with "toCheck".

if(toCheck.contains(currentConsideration)){
    toCheck.remove(currentConsideration);
}

Any help would be much appreciated!
