Are you seeing an Activation Lock? If not that, what problems are you having using the iPad?


See if anything here helps.


If you can't activate your iPhone - Apple Support


If an Activation Lock, you need the original Apple ID and password that was used when the iPad was originally set up. If you don't know the ID and password, if you are the original owner, contact Apple. Apple can remove the ID  if provided the required paperwork to include the original purchase receipt with the serial number on it. 


Request additional support for unlocking your device.    -


You used to be able to take the device, the original purchase receipt with the serial number, and a photo ID to the nearest Apple Store (if it has reopened) and have them remove the ID. This may have changed, so call the store before going to make sure they can help.
