    Most likely it's dead. Maybe not, but most likely. Edit to provide details (where in the world, how old, what size pot, and what's already requested above,) but don't expect miracles.

  • So presumably a Japanese Red Maple, as the "usual" small red-leafed maple in garden-center commerce.

Carefully scratch the bark with a coin or thumbnail. If it shows green, the tree is alive. Practice on a shrub so you know what you're looking for. More detail here, for example.
