Obviously, secession from the United States is not something that occurs on a regular basis. Thus, I am not aware of any set procedure for a state to secede. However, at least one minimum requirement is known.

The main (and maybe only) U.S. Supreme Court case dealing with secession is Texas v. White, 74 U.S. 700 (1868). I suggest your research start with this case. From Texas v. White: "The union between Texas and the other States was as complete, as perpetual, and as indissoluble as the union between the original States. There was no place for reconsideration, or revocation, except through revolution, or through consent of the States."

That is, at the very least, the United States, as well as the state that is seceding, would need to agree to the secession. You may be able to determine other requirements after reading the case.

Further, below is a website to a group in California that is advocating that California secede from the United States. They may be a source for more information on secession.
