The amount of the distributive share of partnership net income that is taxable by California is the share of the partnership's net income of $10,000 that can be attributed to Ewan.
Assuming he holds a 50% interest in the partnership, he is expected to pay tax on his share of the $10,000 (which is equal to $5,000) in California, where the income is earned and not where he resides.
Explanation:

The partnership usually lists the partners' income on Schedule K-1, while individual partners fill the normal individual tax returns.
