Remove List Assignment in V3 API

Greetings. I'm having difficulties removing a specific contact from list assignments using API3. Typically I would just omit the "list_memberships": node in the JSON structure if I wanted to remove them from all lists but doing so has no effect on the list assignment in CC.

What is the proper method for removing a contact from all lists using API 3. After I'm finished I'd like the Contact status to be "Not Assigned to Any Lists"

Thank you.
