If you do not touch the screen within the lock screen time period it will do this. If this is happening while you are actively touching the screen or other action then:


Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?


Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.


Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
