drywall spacing floating distance


Is there a minimum distance that drywall will float between end stud and termination of drywall.
Someone remember?
Where can I find documentation?

Is it on an outside corner or an inside corner?

The USG drywall hand book would say. Or for that matter likely any company in the drywall selling business.
