You can leave the home at the age of majority. However, if you are in an abusive situation, you can call Child Protective Services. Also, contact a local shelter and ask for their help.
As far as living with your other parent, this is something you should consult with him or her about. I doubt your parent here would go all the way to California to get you to come back.

You have reached the magic age of 16
Have your California parent arrange for a
Petition to be filed. Summertime is best
because there will be no school disruption
mid year
