He served as district judge 1904-1906.Favrot was elected as a Democrat to the Sixtieth Congress (March 4, 1907-March 3, 1909). He was an unsuccessful candidate for renomination in 1908. He served as member of the State house of representatives 1912-1916. He resumed the practice of law in Baton Rouge.Favrot was elected to the Sixty-seventh and Sixty-eighth Congresses (March 4, 1921-March 3, 1925).

Favrot shot and murdered Dr. Robert H. Aldrich. It had been alleged that Dr. Aldrich had slandered Favrot’s wife’s name at a party to celebrate the re-election of Representative Favrot to Congress. After stalking Dr. Aldrich for several days after the alleged slander, he finally ambushed the Dr. as he was entering his own building’s lobby and fired three shots from behind killing Dr. Aldrich. Favrot turned himself in to his friends Deputy Sheriff Milligan and his running-mate and current District Attorney Hubert Wax. Favrot was placed in jail for five months while two separate Grand Juries debated the charges against him, however, he was released after both Grand Juries refused to indict. He was being represented by his friend and fellow Judge Thomas J. Kernan. His defense was purported to be based on an ‘unwritten law’ about the slandering of one’s wife and had been presented by his lawyer at the last annual meeting of the American Bar Association, who argued in favor of recognition of this ‘principle’. While Favrot served five months in jail awaiting the Grand Jury’s determination, Congress kept his seat open. REFERENCES: NY TIMES NEWSPAPER 11/8/1906 AND 4/12/1907".
