You haven't given alot of information in the above, but this often happens
if the table was created with double quotes (often implicitly by a tool)
in mixed-case but is referenced without double quotes which causes
case-folding.  This also sometimes similarly happens with all uppercase
names because PostgreSQL does folding to lowercase rather than the SQL
folding to uppercase.
