    We prove that in the limit \(\hslash \to 0\), the probability for the paths of the stochastic jump process associated to the quantum time evolution to be in a tublet around the classical trajectory is of order 1-\(\exp \{- A/\hslash \}\). We give some applications of this result to the study of the classical limit of Wigner functions.
