<p>A vehicle compartment latch (10) has a support (11) that is fastened to a deck lid (12). A fork bolt (14) is pivotally attached to the support and moved from an unlatched position to a latched position by a striker (16) when the deck lid is closed. The fork bolt is held in the latched position by a moveable detent lever (18) that is moved to a release position to release the fork bolt so that the deck lid can be opened. The closure latch includes a detent lock-out (38) that holds the detent lever in the release position until the deck lid is opened once the fork bolt is released. The detent lock out includes a striker position lever that is moved to an engaged position by the striker being retained by the fork bolt and a detent pawl that holds the detent lever in the released position once the detent lever is released. <IMAGE></p>
