You should write a kind of template into the @RequestMapping:

http://localhost:8080/userGrid?_search=${search}&nd=${nd}&rows=${rows}&page=${page}&sidx=${sidx}&sord=${sord}

Now define your business method like following:

@RequestMapping("/userGrid?_search=${search}&nd=${nd}&rows=${rows}&page=${page}&sidx=${sidx}&sord=${sord}")
public @ResponseBody GridModel getUsersForGrid(
@RequestParam(value = "search") String search, 
@RequestParam(value = "nd") int nd, 
@RequestParam(value = "rows") int rows, 
@RequestParam(value = "page") int page, 
@RequestParam(value = "sidx") int sidx, 
@RequestParam(value = "sort") Sort sort) {
...............
}

So, framework will map ${foo} to appropriate @RequestParam.

Since sort may be either asc or desc I'd define it as a enum:

public enum Sort {
    asc, desc
}

Spring deals with enums very well.
