A closure latch includes a support frame on which is pivotally mounted an inverted fork bolt and a detent for maintaining the bolt in either of two latched positions. A generally Z-shaped operating lever is pivoted to a side flange of the frame at a juncture of the former. The other juncture of the operating lever is pivoted to one end of an elongated intermittent member for longitudinal translation thereof. The terminal legs of the operating lever are respectively engageable by an inside release lever and an outside release lever, the directions of engagement being opposite such that the release levers are alternately engageable with their respective legs. A lateral pin on the frame received within a slot on the intermittent member guides translatory movement of the intermittent member by the operating lever and independent swinging movement of the intermittent member relative to the operating lever between coupled and uncoupled positions with respect to the detent. A tab on the intermittent member is received within a slot of a locking lever which is supported on a cantilevered arm of the frame and movable between locked and unlocked positions. The locking lever in unlocked position locates the intermittent member in coupled position with respect to the detent, and in locked position locates the intermittent member in uncoupled position with respect to the detent.
