I found an IPad at the mall and nobody seems to care about it being lost after about 3 months. Is there any way to remove the activation lock or reset it after 7 months or so?
iPad
No. If the iPad is Activation Locked, the iPad is of no use to you - or anyone other than the owner.
Here is Apple’s information about the Activation Lock - and how to switch-off this feature:

As you will discover, if the iPad has been activated and associated with an AppleID account that you do not control, you will need to secure the cooperation of the account owner to whom the device is locked. If you cannot secure their cooperation, you’ll not be able to technically defeat or bypass this security measure. In this situation, there is nothing that anyone here can do to help.
If you are the original owner - and have documentary evidence (i.e, the original sales invoice that shows the device serial number), then Apple may be able to assist.
