No. State courts do not have jurisdiction over one another. For instance, a Maryland state court's decision is not binding on a Pennsylvania state court and vice versa. Likewise, a Pennsylvania court lacks the jurisdiction to overturn any state case law from Maryland. Federal courts, however, do have the power to overturn state court decisions in many (but not all) instances.

Are state courts under the control of the governor of that state?
Generally speaking, no. The governor cannot tell the judge how to decide a particular case, and the governor cannot fire the judge for a decision he or she doesn't like. However, in most states, the governor appoints at least some of the judges, who may then need to be confirmed by the state legislature.
