context: Whatever their legal merit, these contentions, like claims by other prisoners challenging the computation of a sentence, may not be raised under SS 23-110. Because such contentions concern the executive department's execution of sentence, not the trial court's imposition of sentence, they must be raised in a habeas corpus petition as the prisoners did in Lewis, Johnson, and Scott.
