From the doco:-

----
public static Connection getConnection(String url,
Properties info)
throws SQLException

Attempts to establish a connection to the given database URL. The
DriverManager attempts to select an appropriate driver from the set of
registered JDBC drivers.

Parameters:
url - a database url of the form jdbc:subprotocol:subname
info - a list of arbitrary string tag/value pairs as connection
arguments; normally at least a "user" and "password" property should be
included
Returns:
a Connection to the URL
Throws:
SQLException - if a database access error occurs
----

Assuming pgStatement is in fact a connection string, can't you:-

return pgStatement.getAutoCommit();

My 2 cents.
