#If a kohen is sleeping in a house where there is a dead corpse you should wake him up to tell him to leave. If he isn't wearing clothing, first tell him to just come out of the house and he'll get dressed, and only then tell him about the corpse.<ref>Rama YD 372:1</ref>

If he isn't wearing clothing, first tell him to just come out of the house and he'll get dressed, and only then tell him about the corpse.<ref>Rama YD 372:1. The Shach Y.D. 372:2 says that this is only true by tumas ohel deoritta. Noda BiYehuda (Dagul Mirvavah Y.D. 372 s.v. im kvar) argues that this should not be an issue as once you are under the same roof as the corpse, it is not an issue deoritta to remain there. </ref>
