SessionAttribute of array list

Question

Hi,
I have a session attribute of an array list with class objects with different values. I know that if i wanted to cast this session attribute to a class i could do so if there were only one object. How do i find a particular object within the array list based on a attribute value so i can assign it to my class? If you have any suggestions, or places to read about this I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!

sorry for the confusion, i figured i'll just show the method that creates the array list and maybe then you'll understand. So once this is created i want to get a particular "account" out of the array list. :
public static ArrayList<Account> selectAccounts()
        QbConnectionPool pool = QbConnectionPool.getInstance();
        Connection connection = pool.getConnection();
        PreparedStatement ps = null;
        ResultSet rs = null;
        String query = "SELECT ListID, Name, FullName, AccountNumber FROM Account";
        try
            ps = connection.prepareStatement(query);
            rs = ps.executeQuery();
            ArrayList<Account> accounts = new ArrayList<Account>();
            while (rs.next())
            {   Account account = new Account();
                account.setListID(rs.getString(1));
                account.setAccountName(rs.getString(2));
                account.setFullName(rs.getString(3));
                account.setAccountNumber(rs.getString(4));
                accounts.add(account);
            return accounts;
        catch(SQLException e)
            e.printStackTrace();
            return null;
        finally
            DBUtil.closeResultSet(rs);
            DBUtil.closePreparedStatement(ps);
            pool.freeConnection(connection);
    }
