ps command returns a "?"

When I do the following command where jxh777 is my userid to see my processes, I see a question mark in the return. Does that mean anything ?

ps -ef | grep jxh777

jxh777 9966 9965 0 16:47:46 pts/tb 0:00 -ksh
jxh777 11660 9966 1 17:05:02 pts/tb 0:00 grep jhabi0
jxh777 28162 28160 0 13:49:38 ? 0:00 perl ./Mob.pl

Thanks in advance for your insight
