How can a state court avoid review of a case by the US Supreme Court?
The only state courts eligible to have cases reviewed by the US Supreme Court are the state supreme courts or court of appeals immediately under the state supreme court (if that court declines review), because a case must exhaust all appellate options before any party can petition the US Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari. State supreme courts can avoid having their cases reviewed by never accepting a case that involves questions of federal or constitutional law. Barring that, they could pay careful attention to case law and not make a ruling in conflict with an established precedent. Barring that, they can only hope whoever loses the state supreme court appeal doesn't petition the US Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari or, if they do, hope that the case isn't sufficiently compelling that it attracts four of the Justices' interest.

How is A president's executive order is based on authority given by congress or?
The executive order is just about as good as the paper it is written on. If the order is against laws all ready in existence it goes to the courts. If it is against the constitution it goes to the courts. Perfect example of this is the recent immigration orders of Trump. Those are now in federal court and the judicial branch has gone into action barring enforcement. Some of his executive orders have been pure nonsense. He did one on making a new holiday, but unless congress acts that is the end of that. Trump's repealing of regulations is much more dangerous and as of last week he had repealed 90 regulations.

Is California the only state where same-sex marriage is legal?
Same-sex marriage is legal in the U.S. state of California. The state first issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples June 16, 2008 as a result of the Supreme Court of California finding in In re Marriage Cases that barring same-sex couples from marriage violated the state's Constitution. The issuance of such licenses was halted from November 5, 2008 through June 27, 2013 due to the passage of Proposition 8—a state constitutional amendment barring same-sex marriages. The granting of same-sex marriages recommenced following the United States Supreme Court decision in Hollingsworth v. Perry, which restored the effect of a federal district court ruling that overturned Proposition 8 as unconstitutional.
