In this work, we examine the discontinuous Galerkin method for parabolic linear problem with data in L1(Ω × (0, T)). On one hand, using a Euler time advancing scheme that goes backwards, we can discretize a time interval. Furthermore, the discretization of space is based on Symmetric Weighted Interior Penalty (SWIPG) method. We use the technique of construction of the renormalized solution to obtain existence of the discrete solution. Then, our research demonstrates that the discrete solution converges in L1(Q) to the unique renormalized solution of the problem, where Q= Ω × (0, T). In the case where the coefficients are smooth, we offer an estimate of the error in L1(Q), when the side on the right is assigned to Marcinkiewicz space Ls, ∞(Q) where 1 < s < 2.
