No petition by a debtor against themself shall be received unless accompanied by the statement required by subsection (1), nor shall any order be made on any such petition unless a copy thereof shall have been served on the Trustee, and the Trustee, admitting such service, shall apply for such order. Any order made on such petition shall be an absolute order.
