<<It also says that it is a responsibility of Beis Din to check and see if
the
person is sincere about what they say, and if they believe he is lying not
to accept the candidate.>>

Is there anything about the motives of the ger? I know of several cases in
which a person (usually the woman) befcomes a ger for marriage but
once converting keeps the mitzvot frequently more than the husband.

So the person is sincere in what they say only that the original motivation
was for exterior reasons.
A similar situation would occur in Israel were a person converts to be
part of mainstream Israeli but once going through the process keeps the
mitzvot
