Change Checkbox value without triggering onCheckChanged

Question

I have setOnCheckedChangeListener implemented for my checkbox

Is there a way I can call

checkbox.setChecked(false);

My solution written in java based on @Chris answer:

chkParent.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
                if(buttonView.getTag() != null){
                    buttonView.setTag(null);
                    return;
                }
                if(isChecked){
                    chkChild.setTag(true);
                    chkChild.setChecked(false);
                }
                else{
                    chkParent.setChecked(true);
                }
            }
});

chkChild.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
                if(buttonView.getTag() != null){
                    buttonView.setTag(null);
                    return;
                }
                if(isChecked){
                    chkParent.setTag(true);
                    chkParent.setChecked(false);
                }
                else{
                    chkChild.setChecked(true);
                }
            }
});

2 checkboxes and always one will be checked (one be must checked initially though). Setting tag to true blocks onCheckedChanged listener.
