If an applicant submits to the court, along with the application, satisfactory proof that open records of the name change or conformity, or publication of the hearing notice under section 2717.08 of the Revised Code, would jeopardize the applicant's personal safety, both of the following apply:

(A) The court shall waive the hearing notice requirement.

(B) If the court orders the change of name under section 2717.09 of the Revised Code or the name conformity under section 2717.10 of the Revised Code, the court shall order the records of the proceeding to be sealed and to be opened only by order of the court for good cause shown or at the request of the applicant for any reason.
