Sure there is, it is called the Supremacy clause. If State Law conflicts with Federal Law, Federal law reigns supreme. An easy Win for even the dumbest of lawyers, State’s do not possess the Constitutional Authority to Redefine Federal Law to their own making.

Which is in no way absolute. The supremacy clause applies when federal and state are in conflict, but only in situations where the FedGov actually has the legitimate power to do something. If it's not in 1-8, then the supremacy clause doesn't apply. You'll have more luck with Amendment number ten.
