    (See ECF Nos. 26, at 2-4; 49-3, at 6:13-7:4, 19:3-21:19). See Smith v. United States, No. RWT-13-1034, 2015 WL 2452416, at *2 (D.Md. May 19, 2015) ("One obvious reason that even a relatively severe miscalculation of sentencing exposure does not ordinarily constitute ineffective assistance of counsel in the context of a guilty plea is that any erroneous advice a defendant receives on sentencing exposure will get corrected prior to the acceptance of a guilty plea, either within the plea agreement itself, or at the very least during a properly conducted Rule 11 colloquy."). The plea agreement, signed by Petitioner, explains that the court has "the power to impose a sentence up to and including the statutory minimum established by statute."
