Question

Labels and GOTOs are considered bad practice and as far as I know there is no reason to use it in C#.

What is the use of labels in C#?

Answer 1

There is nothing wrong with labels and goto's in themselves. The problem is that people tend to abuse them which does create a problem.

Typical use of a label

OperationStart:
  if ( !TrySomeOperation() ) {
    if ( MaybeFixOperation() ) { 
      goto OperationStart;
    }
  }

You'd need to make some assertions that you couldn't hit an infitite loop, but given a reasonable set of guarantees there's nothing inherently wrong with this code.
