The most flexible way to detect a pid by its command line (where your jar should be included) is with wmic. To process the wmic result and assign it to a variable you'll need FOR /F :

@echo off

for /f  "useback tokens=* delims=" %%# in (
    `wmic process where "CommandLine like '%%my_jar.jar%%' and not CommandLine like '%%wmic%%' " get  ProcessId /Format:Value`
) do (
    for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%a in ("%%#") do set "%%a"
)

echo %processId%

echo taskkill /pid %processId% /f

Where you should change '%%my_jar.jar%%' with your jar name.To kill the process you'll have to delete the echo word in the last line. It is echoed in order to check if the correct process id is handled.

This is how I "find" and kill Adobe Acrobat

::Close acrobat and any opened PDF
taskkill /im acrobat.exe /t /f 
timeout 2

/im for imagename, or program you're targeting
/t terminates the specified process and any child process which were started by it
/f Forcefully terminate the process
