If you're talking about FTX US, and your son instructed them to sell coins, if the trade was executed he may have been credited to his USD balance. If so, these funds would be validly held in his name by Evolve Bank & Trust.

Evolve is a real bank (outlasted SVB/Silvergate/Signature/[Credit Suisse?]). I'd have to imagine their support is still overloaded, but worth an email nonetheless.

Even if so, I'd caution not to get hopes up too high, because I could imagine some sort of clawback occurring for trades that executed just before trading stopped.
