Abstract
An electronic mobile device comprises a base defining a compartment opening and a cover movably supported by the base to restrict access to the compartment opening. The device further comprises a latch supported by one of the base and the cover and a catch pivotably supported by the other of the base and the cover. The catch pivots in a first direction to engage and move the latch relative to the catch and thereby move at least a portion of the cover away from the compartment opening.
