Default Rear seat

Why do one of my seats in the rear always lift up when someone gets up from it, how do you fasten it back down?

I dont think you could actually do something about it. If there is a way I would like to know also.

Actually its the back of the seat that pops up, not the front, when someone sits on it and gets up the back up the seat pops up

Remove the bolt on the front, and lift the seat right out. When you re-install it, hook the rear in (take a look at the rear edge of the seat and where it sits in the car to see how it hooks), push the front down, and re-install the front bolt.
