There's a 1795 Supreme Court case that said a state could secede unilaterally.

And an 1869 case that said they could not.

Which, I suspect, would be of little concern to a state that has decided that it is no longer interested in being bound by the US Constitution.

Dude, 1795 precedes 1861. 1869 is 8 years after the fact.
