There is no such thing as "creating an object as static". You might be
confusing this with creating a single instance of a servlet, which is
shared across all requests to that servlet.
Fundamentally, this means you cannot use static or instance variables in
our servlet class to maintain per-request state information. Use local
variables in our methods, or pass things around as request attributes, in
order to deal with this.
