What if a state declares a law unconstitutional and void?
If a state court declares a state law unconstitutional, the state will probably appeal the case to the state supreme court.

The case could ultimately be heard by the US Supreme Court; however, if a lower court reverses the state court's decision and either the appropriate US Court of Appeals Circuit Court or US Supreme Court decline to consider the case, the decision of the lower federal court would be final. The US Supreme Court is the ultimate arbiter of constitutionality.
