SUWANEE, GA (CBS ATLANTA) -

Half of the country's 40 million house decks pose a safety danger and may not be covered by homeowner insurance policies, according to a code certified home inspector.

Stan Garnet, of Inspector Associates, Inc. of Atlanta, said decks built in the 1990s or earlier risk possible collapse in part because theywereconstructed before today's stricter building standards were adopted.

Allan Viscardi, of Suwanee, said he had no idea his deck was teetering on collapse until he came home from a trip in February. His deck, built when his house was constructed in 1996, crumbled 10 feet to the ground. No one was on the deck when it fell.

Country Financial denied Viscardi's insurance claim, citing poor workmanship and improper engineering.

Viscardi said he doesn't understand how Country Financial could use that excuse when hishomewith the deck had been approved for occupancy by Gwinnett County Department of Planning and Development in 1996.

"Insuring my property for five years and leading me to believe that I had insurance and then to come back after the fact and say my property wasn't insurablebecause it wasn't properly built, is lame. I think they have a greater duty to me," said Viscardi.

Viscardi said he thinks insurance companies have a responsibility to inform homeowners thatpolicies may not cover older decks because they weren't built to modern specifications.

Country Financial wouldnot comment about Viscardi's caseto CBS Atlanta News.

Garnet recommended homeowners have their deck inspected if it is older than 10 years and replace it if necessary.

Hyderabad, June 11 (IANS) The Andhra Pradesh High Court Tuesday gave its nod for the much-awaited merger of Mahindra Satyam with its parent firm Tech Mahindra, which will create a $2.4 billion entity, the fifth largest Indian IT firm.

Clearing the decks for the merger, Justice N.R.L. Nageswara Rao dismissed a batch of petitions filed to stall the move.

Opposing the merger, 35 individuals and companies including the family members of Satyam Computer Services' founder Ramalinga Raju, two entities owned by engineering and construction firm IL&FS and minority shareholders had filed the petitions.

The Raju family and IL&FS, in their petitions, sought a refund of Rs.1,230 crore they claim to have lent Satyam before a crisis hit in January 2009.

The judge also said all investigations into the accounting fraud at the erstwhile Satyam Computer Services would continue.

Raju had on Jan 7, 2009 confessed to fudging the accounts of Satyam for years to the tune of at least Rs.7,136 crore. The biggest fraud in India's corporate history plunged the Hyderabad-based company into a crisis.

Mahindra Satyam has welcomed the court order.

"We are pleased with the decision of the court and our faith in the judiciary stands vindicated. The next step will be to formally conclude the integration process and accelerate our ambitious focus towards becoming a stronger force to reckon with in the IT industry and delight our stakeholders," said a company spokesperson.

Tech Mahindra bought the fraud-hit firm in April 2009 in an auction conducted by government-appointed directors and re-branded it as Mahindra Satyam. Soon after the acquisition, the merger was proposed. However, the same was delayed due to various disputes both in India and abroad.

Mahindra Group on March 21 last year had announced the amalgamation of its two technology companies.
