Retiring Judges still have to serve on Crt of Appeals, so he still will have some sway over appeallate jurisdiction.

Where is this written in the Constitution?

If Justice Kennedy wants to hear cases in the Appeals Courts, he probably can. But if he just wants to retire and visit his kids and grandkids, he can do that, too. I don’t think anything requires former Supreme Court Justices - or any federal judge - to stay on the bench after retiring.
