Chris, there is good article by AOPA Legal Counsel John Yodice in the
October Pilot.

I hope it is legal...I've had 5 in a C172 (1 less than 2yo...)

This has been asked quite often, but I still didn't find a satifectory
answer. So what are the legal constrins to pack 5 people in a C-182?
I read one can do that with a fifth seatbelt. What if there are only four
seatbelts and installing a fith is not an option - can a baby sit on one's
lap legally? What's about insurance?

Thanks
Chris
