How did you annotate the relationships? FetchType.EAGER? – user993553 Sep 27 '15 at 08:23

if it lazys and you do not use fetch joins, what happens? – user993553 Sep 27 '15 at 08:35

When I try to convert the entity to JSON it fetches and prints them. I mean internally Spring does it – user1228785 Sep 27 '15 at 08:44

I do not know spring, but what about using XmlTransient or JSonIgnore annotations on the relationships? – user993553 Sep 27 '15 at 08:49

But I need it to be conditional.. Not always – user1228785 Sep 27 '15 at 08:56

Are your version of spring using jackson? then see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7421474/how-can-i-tell-jackson-to-ignore-a-property-for-which-i-dont-have-control-over – user993553 Sep 27 '15 at 09:20

If it's happening while you convert to JSON — I would use SELECT NEW queries with approrpiate DTO constructor. This way you'll get as much flexibility as you need.
