Below posting an example for deserializing json Array to Arraylist

@RequestMapping(value = "/mapJsonObjects", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public static ModelAndView parseJSONObjects(@RequestParam String jsonList,HttpServletRequest request,
        HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
    JSONParser parser=new JSONParser();
    ArrayList filteredList = new ArrayList();
   Object obj = parser.parse(jsonList);
   JSONArray newList = (JSONArray)obj;
   filteredList = newList;
              -----------

}

To convert an array List to json array. First add the below beans to springServlet.xml

    
        text/html
    

Then from the controller return the arraylist as below

                Map filteredMap = new LinkedHashMap();
                List filteredList;
                ------filteredMap logic -----------
            filteredAccountMap.put("rows", filteredList);
            return new ModelAndView("jsonView", filteredMap);
