Abstract: A seat assembly is disclosed comprising a pivotable backrest, an auxiliary seat, and first and second latches. The first latch is fixedly connected to the bottom cushion and pivotable about a pivot point between a deployed position and a stowed position. The first latch has an opening and a groove extending from the opening, the opening including an arcuate border having a substantially constant radius from the pivot point. The second latch includes a lower bracket arm and an upper bracket arm connected to the backrest, the upper bracket arm including a latch finger and a crank. In a first position, the latch finger engages a catch in the lower bracket arm to lock the backrest in the use position and a distal end of the crank extends into the opening of the first latch. In a second position, the latch finger does not engage the catch and the distal end of the crank extends into the groove of the first latch.
