java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to ....CrExcessMaster

My code is

private List find(String queryString) {
    final Query query = getSession().createQuery(queryString.intern());
    List resultSet = query.list();
    return resultSet;
}
@SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
public List < CrExcessMaster > getExcessesWidget(String primaryCO) {
    List cifList = find("select cem.id.cifNumber from CrEntitymaster cem where cem.primaryCo='" + primaryCO + "'");
    List < CrExcessMaster > temp = null;
    for (int i = 0; i < cifList.size(); i++) {
        log.info("cifList in dao " + cifList);
        if (i == 0) {
            temp = find("from CrExcessMaster where cif='" + cifList.get(i) + "'");
        } else temp.add((CrExcessMaster) find("from CrExcessMaster where cif='" + cifList.get(i) + "'"));
    }
    return temp;
}

where crExcessMaster is a table and I need to display variable temp value... But when i try to call above returned value as below

public static FilteredUIExcessList formatCustomerExcessUiBean(List < CrExcessMaster > crExcessMasterList) {
if (crExcessMasterList != null) {
    FilteredUIExcessList filteredUIExcessList = new FilteredUIExcessList(); 
    < font color = red >
    for (CrExcessMaster crExcessMaster: crExcessMasterList) < /font>{
         ExcessUIBean excessUIBean = new ExcessUIBean();
         excessUIBean.setCurrency(crExcessMaster.getCurrency());
}

At the code highlighted in red, it is throwing classcast exception

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to cib.ecm.creditRisk.excessManagement.db.orm.CrExcessMaster
