JPA v.1 doesn't support criterias. Hibernate 3.3 provides a JPA(1) implementation, and in addition to it it also supports criteria API but these are not exposed via the old JPA interface. So either you switch to use the org.hibernate API, or update to JPA v2, implemented by Hibernate >3.5 (latest stable is 3.6.0)
