We consider the partial regularity of suitable weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in a domain $D$. We prove that the parabolic Hausdorff dimension of space-time singularities in $D$ is less than or equal to 1 provided the force $f$ satisfies $f\in L^{2}(D)$. Our argument simplifies the proof of a classical result of Caffarelli, Kohn, and Nirenberg, who proved the partial regularity under the assumption $f\in L^{5/2+\delta}$ where $\delta>0$.
Keywords: Navier-Stokes equations, Navier-Stokes equation, singular set, Hausdorff dimension., partial regularity.
